Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. While “The Matrix” mirrors Plato’s allegory almost exactly in structure‚ its storyline is far more complex and it is effectively adapted to be a modern sci-fi/action movie. The film draws in a modern audience‚ who can relate to its protagonist‚ Neo‚ because we too may have felt disconnected from present society. Not many people in the past one hundred years have been chained to a cave wall watching shadow puppets. Just as the prisoners in the cave‚ Neo is chained to massive

Furthermore‚ I will argue that the critique is still applicable in a modern context by presenting various problems that modern democratic models pose for the critique and then demonstrating how Plato’s argument can overcome them.

The Republic of Plato Before I started reading Plato’s the Republic‚ I was loathe to admit that reading those philosophy books were gonna really change how I view myself. It was totally a waste of time to read these vague and complicated books. As I went on reading the republic‚ I saw many similar things that still existed in our society. In the book‚ Plato prescribes severe dictates concerning the cultural life of the city. He rules out all poverty‚ with the exception of hymns to the gods and

Explain how Plato’s epistemological assumptions shape his metaphysics (Why does he think that there must be Forms? Hint: Plato says (in effect): “Since knowledge is certain‚ therefore the objects of knowledge must be unchanging.”). b) Define Plato’s Forms and present the theory of Forms by explaining the “divided line.” (You can use the visual image‚ but explain it.)

The prisoners chained in a cave their whole life believe the shadows is what signifies their real world and the ultimate reality whereas one prisoner (the Philosopher) reluctantly leaves the cave and he discovers the
