This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.

This video focuses on Plato's work, The Phaedo, and examines Socrates' contention that the body is a prison for the soul, contaminating it with materiality
