Description
Summary:Justus Lipsius (1547-1606), editor of the complete works of Seneca, wrote his treatise Physiologia Stoicorum (Antwerp, 1604) with the intention of deepening his understanding of the Roman philosopher. In order to harmonise Stoic teachings with Christianity, he plays down their materialism. And in keeping with this concern, his attitude towards the theory of the World-Soul is influenced by the Renaissance belief in a prisca theologia. The present article examines Lipsius’ interpretation of the World-Soul in that historical and intellectual context. In particular, it analyses his intention, and the method and strategy he adopts, when dealing with his sources.
RésuméÉditeur de l’œuvre complète de Sénèque, Juste Lipse (1547-1606) crée son traité Physiologia Stoicorum (Anvers, 1604) pour mieux comprendre la pensée du moraliste latin. Afin d’harmoniser les doctrines stoïciennes avec le christianisme, il essaie d’en atténuer le matérialisme. Traduisant ce souci, son attitude envers la théorie de l’âme du monde est influencée par la croyance renaissante à la prisca theologia. La présente étude examine l’interprétation que Lipse propose de l’âme du monde dans ce contexte historique et intellectuel. Elle vise surtout à analyser le but, la méthode et la stratégie du maniement de ses sources.
