Aristotle treats in his works De Anima and De Motu Animalium of desire, perception, cognition, fantasy, and good apparent without directly correlating these concepts with his two great ethics, at least that is what the interpreters have as a question solved. The article takes up these concepts that Jessica Moss and Hendrik Lorenz develop, highlighting the important function that fantasy plays in the locomotion chain, when the soul is moved by the desire of a certain desired object, whose good is apparent, because to the desireer it seems a good. This seems to demonstrate that fantasy is more than a mere metaphor, but it can be taken as an important piece to understand our human deliberations and actions.
