Argument for spirituality of soul appears in a few places of Aquinas’ text and is sometimes called “the impediment argument”, “the argument for plasticity of intellect”, “the argument from common dimension”. The names differ as far as Thomas did not establish himself any name for his reasoning in this matter. There is no doubt that the argument derives from the Aristotelian On the soul, however, Aquinas does not develop it. The argument is present in four places and its most important presumptions would be summarized as follows: (1) man can cognize the nature of all bodies by his own intellect; (2) that what is able to cognize everything can not in itself have a nature of the cognized object – the nature of body would block a process of cognition; (3) it is impossible for the intellectual principle to be a body – it would not be possible for the principle of intellectual action to act through a bodily part; (4) the intellectual principle which is called the intellect or the mind acts per se does not contain any bodily involvement in its action. Hence, according to Aquinas, soul is something subsisting with regard to actions which are not the acts of body. However, this statement is disturbingly mistaken. In Summa, nevertheless, Thomas develops this issue further. In response to some objections he would emphasize that none of parts (as far as part is understood as a part of a whole) could not exist separately and act separately – neither soul nor body (as well as an eye or a hand). This is for the fact that soul is something subsisting (quod est) and inherited in matter (quo aliquid aliud est). Aquinas tries to explain the status of soul significantly, nevertheless left some questions open to make analysis on a whole human being possible, including body for which soul serves as a form. Thus, through the intellect we would observe a unique characteristic of human soul as a rational being.

Augustyńskie wyjaśnienia natury duszy ludzkiej zmierzają do ukazania jej aktywności. Augustyn nie ma wątpliwości co do tego, by same te aktywności były utożsamione z duszą, gdyż ta identyczność pozwala na stwierdzenie zachodzenia faktycznych działań. Dusza działa doskonale, o ile działa w pełni, a więc na sposób, w jaki każde działanie ją stanowi. W obszarze działań intelektualnych dusza spełnia się w działaniu intelektualnym, w działaniu, które jest odzwierciedleniem natury Boga. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest próba ustalenia znaczeń różnych wyrażeń określających duszę (anima, animus, spiritus, intellectus, mens, ratio) w myśli filozoficznej świętego Augustyna. Pozwoli to na lepsze zrozumienie Augustyńskiej koncepcji poznania intelektualnego a szczególnie idei oświecenia, jakiego doznaje dusza w poznawaniu rzeczywistości.

Augustine’s explanations of the nature of the human soul are aimed at showing its activity. Augustine has no doubts that the activities themselves are identified with the soul, since this identity allows for the occurrence of actual activities to be ascertained. The soul works perfectly as long as it functions fully, and therefore in the way that every action constitutes it. In the area of intellectual activities, the soul is fulfilled in intellectual action, the action that reflects God’s nature. The aim of this article is to try to determine the meanings of the various terms that define the soul (anima, animus, spiritus, intellectus, mens, ratio) in the philosophical thought of Saint Augustine. This will make possible a better understanding of the Augustinian concept of intellectual cognition, especially the idea of illumination that the soul experiences in knowing reality.
