The Phaedo is a dialogue set in the prison cell in which Socrates awaits his execution: he and his close companions discuss the immortality of the soul, and its experiences in life and death.
The Phaedo is a dialogue set in the prison cell in which Socrates awaits his execution: he and his close companions discuss the immortality of the soul, and its experiences in life and death. What emerges from these discussions offers us a profound insight into the challenges facing us – challenges which can only be addressed by our cultivation of soul wisdom. In the quiet of the prison cell, Plato lays before us a vision of the hero-soul striving, as always, to bring the goodness of noble truth to bear upon those who would engage with that quest for soul-wisdom. (Reading: Phaedo, 64a-69d)
