Can someone explain the connection between the souls immortality and recollection in Plato's theories?

Answer: The Cyclical Argument and Theory of Recollection are separate but have similar aspects, namely the belief in reincarnation and soul permanence.

Explanation:

The Cyclical Argument is Plato's belief that the soul's immortality is proven through the rebirth of those dying. If life springs from death, then the dead souls have to remain in existence for new life to inherit them.

The Theory of Recollection claims that humans possess knowledge inherently. Learning is just recalling prior memory, or drawing it out of the brain, and this information must have had to come from a previous life or soul.
