Difference between Anima mundi and Demiurge

Anima mundi vs. Demiurge

The anima mundi (Latin), world soul (ψυχὴ κόσμου), or soul of the world (ψυχὴ τοῦ κόσμου) is an intrinsic connection between all living beings according to several systems of thought, which hold that it relates to the world in much the same way as the animating force or immortal soul is connected to the human body. In the Platonic, Neopythagorean, Middle Platonic, and Neoplatonic schools of philosophy, the demiurge (sometimes spelled as demiurg) is an artisan-like figure responsible for fashioning and maintaining the physical universe.
