A natureza da alma como um intermediário

Abstract

This paper presents a reflection on Plato’s speech about the postulation of a possible thesis on the nature of the soul. The text is dedicated to list the Phaedo the arguments that consider the soul with a simple reality and the end of one of the forms, unchanged, in contrast to the speeches of the Timaeus and the Phaedrus with the thesis of the tripartite. We conclude that for the solution of the problem Plato suggests, between the lines of text in question, which is the psykhe is an intermediate (metaxu) between the forms and some attributes of sensitivity.
