Abstract

The study of the relationship between the human being and other living beings receives great attention during both the Humanism and the Renaissance. The Aristotelian tradition studies the relationship between the human being and other living beings through the study of the connection between the intellectual soul, the sensory soul and the vegetative soul. As a result, almost all philosophers of the age introduced anatomical or at least physiological information into their treatises on the functions of living beings, and the investigation no longer only concerned human beings but also animals and plants.
