Sažetak
Frane Petris, after having distinguished between anima, which denotes human soul, and animus, which represents “the soul of the other things”, he dedicates the rest of the “Pampsychia” section of his Nova de universis philosophia to “the soul of other things”. In rare secondary literature that at least partially deals with the concept of the soul in Petris, it has been already argued that Petris’s positioning the soul in the “real middle” continues the Neoplatonic tradition of the copula mundi as well as borrows something from the Stoic tradition. In my analysis I will be focused the understanding the “true middle” (vere medium) and what it implies for the understanding of Petris’s animus. Based on some passages from the Discussiones peripateticae as well as the section “On air” from the “Pancosmia” section of the Nova de universis philosophia, I will try to argue for a possible physicalist interpretation of Petris’s animus.
