Faidoni by Plato
"Faidoni" by Plato is a dialogue written in ancient Greece. In his final hours before execution, Socrates debates the immortality of the soul with his friends and followers. Through philosophical arguments with Pythagorean thinkers Simmias and Cebes, he explores whether the soul survives death and what awaits in the afterlife. The dialogue blends rigorous reasoning with mythological narrative, culminating in Socrates' execution and his final words to his companions. (This is an
