Phaedon (Template:Lang-de), published in 1767, is one of the most famous books by the Jewish Enlightenment philosopher Moses Mendelssohn. A defense of immortality, it won him fame. Mendelssohn argued that the soul must be indestructible because it is a simple substance. Immanuel Kant criticized Mendelssohn's argument in the Critique of Pure Reason.
