The Soul and the Body: An Analysis of Plato and Descartes. This four-page undergraduate paper compares and contrasts Plato's account of the relationship between the soul and the body in Phaedo with Descartes' mind-body dualism. The author's thesis holds that Descartes' theories are more convincing because he was able to draw upon a broader array of human knowledge than was available to Plato.
