ABSTRACTThe incarnation of God in the person of Christ produces a surfeit, a supplementary grace from which the Church organizes the salvific dispensation. It is not certain however, that the use of the expression " ecclesial body " best translates this historic reality, throughout history. The question of the body obliges a return to these concepts, these fundamental representations through which Catholicism reflects. This rapid excursion around the complex and subtile notions like the Sacred Heart or the Mystical Body, brutally recalls the lacunae in the transmission of theological knowledge wedded to the body of Christ.

The anonymous text Ventorum situs et nomina, once held to be by Aristotle himself, gives the local names of 10 topic winds as well as their directions. It is not an elaboration of the wind-rose that Aristotle, for example, describes in Meteor. 2.5, though many scholars have assumed this, but a presentation of a weather-map for the inhabited world (οἰκουμένη). What seems to be important to the author in collecting the local winds under the topic winds is not so much their direction as their time of year as well as the etymologies of the local names.
