The History Of The Concept Of The Soul [live] Lyrics

Homer didn't have a comprehensive word for "mind"
The psyche and the conscious self had not yet been combined
He understood events as repetition of the past
And individual consciousness was not a part of that

But early Greek thought played a role
In the complicated history of the concept of the soul

By the time of Plato, these ideas had taken shape
The Phaedo and Timaeus are works which demonstrate
The conscious separation of thе knower from the known
And the dual naturе of the body and the soul

Modern thought was possible
It's the complicated history of the concept of the soul

Whoo!

Pythagoras and Orphic doctrines all came into play
'Cause Plato was a mystic in his own Platonic way
The pre-Socratic naturalists saw things in terms of "stuff"
But Plato's metaphysics showed that this was not enough

This is the incredible
It's the complicated history of the concept of the soul

Rock and roll!
