To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For the soul is the imperishable within the perishable body. To get at Plato's deep conviction here, we must re- member that he fully assumed the doctrines of Pythagoras and of his followers in Italy and Sicily whom he visited and with whose noblest possessions he became closely acquainted. We must, then, speak, not so much of an immortality of the soul, but rather of an eternity of the same both of past and of future. In Plato's literary style there is a characteristic blend- ing of the simple... and of the noble, of the candidly urgent and earnest tone, coupled with a certain majesty. And this strain in his innermost fibre often finds expression in simile, in myth, in allegory as though intuition on strong pinions soared to altitudes beyond the ken of sense and seeming, and beyond this little experience of our life and our world. 230 TESTIMONIUM ANBLE Thus, too, Plato delineates the source and composition of the soul in a famous passage in the " Phaedrus " (245, c sqq. }. The soul every soul is immortal, because self-moved, self-determined, not receiving life from any source out- side of itself; whatever is moved or stirred by another, experiences sometime a cessation of movements, or life.
