The Gathering and the Proposal
Phaedo began his narrative by describing the gathering of Socrates' friends in his cell. Among them were his old friend Crito, and two Pythagorean philosophers, Simmias and Cebes. Socrates, despite his impending death, was as composed and philosophical as ever. He proposed a notion that, though suicide is wrong, a true philosopher should look forward to death. This statement was the precursor to a profound discussion on the nature of the soul and its immortality. Socrates asserted that the soul is immortal and that the philosopher spends his life training it to detach itself from the needs of the body. He argued that the body is a prison, and the philosopher's goal is to free the soul from this imprisonment. As he put it, "The lovers of learning know that when philosophy gets hold of their soul, it is imprisoned in and clinging to the body, and that it is forced to examine other things through it as through a cage and not by itself, and that it wallows in every kind of ignorance".
