- Plato
- Dualist
- He believed that the body and soul were separate substances which interact
- An individuals real identity lies within their soul.
- The body
- The demands of the body will take over.
- Our body is a nuisance and a bind, it is not a real person.
- We have a body but we are not a body.
- The real person is separate and distinct from the body it inhabits.
- The soul
- The soul is on a higher level of reality than the body, being immortal with understanding of the realm of ides.
- The soul is concerned with reason and it is not always perfect as the body corrupts it and drags it down.
- Dualist
