is Christof. In the movie The Truman Show Truman is living in a world where everyone knows his life is shown on worldwide television but him. He lives in a giant dome created by a man named Christof. He is also the director of the Show. He could be looked at as the god of this small world he created because he controls everything that goes on inside the set and he basically rules out Truman and the actor’s lives for them.

the excerpt‚ "[Best minds] must continue to ascend until they arrive at the good‚ but when they have ascended and seen enough...they must be able to descend again...‚"(Plato 5) symbolizes that it is the responsibility of those with great minds who make sense of the knowledge around them‚ to inform others who are stuck in the cave.

1. The idea of the reality show Cochabamba is very interesting. It reminds me of a movie called The Truman Show (1998) with Jim Carrey where he is born and raised inside this dome and led to believe he was a normal person when in reality his family and friends were all just actors and that he has been the unknowing star of ‘The Truman Show’.

III. Parmenides was of the Pre-Socratic times that focused on the offspring of philosophy‚ metaphysics. Parmenides philosophy relies heavily on reason‚ which influenced the thinking of Plato and Aristotle tremendously. A monist with such a radical metaphysical view on what is there and what is not‚ or what actually exists and what doesn’t.
