Never in my life have I studied this hard! It is extreme!
Ancient studies are not the easiest of subjects, but I shall try to overcome! The picture above is Platon's cave allegory. A quite interesting allegory in fact! Makes you think about the relativity of everything you seem as reality! I guess his message came through, such a genius he was! Even though I do not like his "ideal state" one bit! Ugh. Way too static and just a great no go.
I love that illustration; sums up perfectly. And I think you're right about his "ideal state" and also the whole world of ideas or whatever it's called in English. Sounds like an interesting study
SvarSletYeah he is kind of odd with his opinions. They make sense, but he does not think of the individual, but of the society. Great read though. Makes one think.
SvarSletYeah it is interesting. But I would rather not be re-reading it.
