What reading level is Phaedo book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The state of sleep is opposed to the state of waking, and outof sleeping waking is generated, and out of waking, sleeping; and theprocess of generation is in the one case falling asleep, and in theother waking up. Do you agree?
I entirely agree.
Then, suppose that you analyze life and death to me in the same manner. Is not death opposed to life?
Yes.
And they are generated one from the other?
Yes.
What is generated from the living?
The dead.
And what from the dead?
I can only say in answer--the... living.
Then the living, whether things or persons, Cebes, are generated fromthe dead?
That is clear, he replied.
Then the inference is that our souls exist in the world below?
That is true.
And one of the two processes or generations is visible--for surely theact of dying is visible?
Surely, he said.
What then is to be the result? Shall we exclude the opposite process?And shall we suppose nature to walk on one leg only? Must we not ratherassign to death some corresponding process of generation?
