The soul or the intelligent spirit of Anaxagoras
Among the philosophers who first have recognized in the living presence of the need to mention the Greek Anaxagoras (Klazomenai 500 B.C. - Lampsacus about 428) than for many years lived and taught in Athens but had to undergo a process of impiety since stated that the sun was a glowing mass and not a deity as claimed his adversaries; as well as with regard to the origin of all celestial motion, all should be caused by a rotation (Nous - intelligent spirit), which has produced a separation in the original mass, so that the great thinker said: "In the beginning was the chaos, then came the Nous who gave orders to all the things" and the world will never end because the spirit has ordered all smaller particles, the seeds (omeomerie) that are to the basis of all the elements for which "everything is all over." Anaxagoras passed the days to contemplate the nature and making exceptional discoveries for the age apparently disinteresting of the homeland, but to his detractors showed his true home as the sky.
