It is not a matter of ignoring the preposition. It is a question of what
is necessary to commuicate the same idea in English.
le indicates a change of state. In English the prepositioin would be
necessary if we were to say, "The man changed into a living soul." The
preposition is not needed with the verb "became."
Sincerely,

ignore
verbs?"
