dc.description.abstractThis essay discusses the ancient Greek philosophical ideas on the sense of smell. It sets out the difficulties of interpreting our source material and proposes to see the range of views from a developmental perspective, highlighting the deep influence the Peripatetic model of the golden mean has had on the way in which the early history of smell became known to us.
