The hegemonikon is a term in ancient Greek philosophy of mind for the soul's governing or commanding faculty, the part responsible for sensation, judgment, impulse and assent. Although the word had earlier use, the doctrine was most fully developed by the Stoics of the third century BCE, who held that the rational soul is a single, unified hegemonikon located in the heart and identified with the highest grade of pneuma. Because almost nothing of Chrysippus's own writing on the soul survives, the doctrine is known chiefly through the polemical commentary of the second-century physician Galen in De placitis Hippocratis et Platonis, which attacks the Stoic account from a cephalocentric and Platonic standpoint. The concept remained central to later Roman Stoicism, particularly in Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius, and is a standard topic in modern scholarship on Hellenistic philosophy and the history of neuropsychology.
