Thoughts on Plato’s Allegory of the Cave The allegory of the cave that appears in Book VII of Plato’s Republic is a well-known text for good reason: it is a brilliant allegory on the nature of the human condition in its relationship to knowledge‚ and it forces the careful reader to reflect on Plato’s implications about different kinds of knowledge.

The Rhetoric in Saving Private Ryan Rhetoric and movies have coexisted within each other ever since the first showing of a moving picture on the big screen. Movies‚ particularly Saving Private Ryan‚ could not have delivered a single message to its audience without the use of rhetoric. Saving Private Ryan is a classic movie to watch whether a person lived through the nineteen nineties or not.

O.C #2-Machiavelli Though often presented as two ideological opposites‚ personally I find there to be a lot more similarities between Plato and Machiavelli than usually acknowledged.

Critical Analysis of “Phaedo” by Plato Much of the Phaedo by Plato is composed of arguments for the nature of the physical world and how it relates to the after life‚ for example‚ the way our senses perceive the world and how indulging in those senses has negative consequences in our after lives. These arguments find basis in scientific analysis of the time as well as the mythos of the his age. One of the key talking points within the story is the theory of forms. The aforementioned theory

Allegory of the Cave The great philosopher‚ Plato‚ back in the days of the ancient Greek civilization‚ concluded that man as a species can only draw from what his senses take about his surroundings. This includes his social relationships‚ eating habits‚ spiritual beliefs‚ and the many other attributes that make a person who they are. This theory/observation is very accurate about man back then and is also seen in everyday life even today. People are constantly leaving their imaginary caves in search of

-What are we "imprisoned by" as a people; as a community‚ as individuals? -What does Plato mean by "shadows" in his Allegory of the Cave? What are the "shadows" of our times? -After the prisoners are released from the cave‚ why are they unable to see ID QUOD EST‚ namely‚ REALITY as it is? -What does "the Sun" symbolize? Why do you think that? How so? Because I love Socrates I find everything Plato writes thoroughly interesting. The minute he opened this part of The Republic with “how

to live free is the common idea in Plato with "The Allegory of the Cave"; Henry David Thoreau with " Where I lived and What I lived for"; and Jean Paul Sartre with " Existentialism". Generally‚ Plato‚ Thoreau‚ and Sartre suggested that human life should be free. They differ in what that freedom is. Plato thinks it is found in the world of intellect‚ Thoreau thinks freedom is found in nature‚ and Sartre thinks freedom is found in subjectivity of individual.
