Bring to a simmer then simmer gently covered until the eggplant is tender. About 45 minutes. In the meantime cook the pasta separately until it is all dente. Drain and stir into the soup along with the parsley. Adjust the consistency with more water if the soup has gotten too thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
