1 PERSONAL REFLECTION
Lo
Socrates believed that the real self is not the physical body, but rather
the psyche, or the soul.
Plato, at least in many of his dialogues, held that the true self of
human beings is the reason or the intellect that constitutes their soul
and that is separable from their body. Aristotle, for his part, insisted
that the human being is a composite of body and soul and that the
soul cannot be separated from the body.
