However, these are not the only modifications of the soul that Plutarch presents to us here. This paper will investigate the various changes undergone by the human soul after it has left the body and will draw inferences concerning Plutarch\u2019s view of the soul and what moral-philosophical points he might be seeking to illustrate through this myth.&#187;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex
