BLOG 3 ''THE ALLEGORY OF THE CAVE''
This
dialectic between two men called “Socrates’’ And
“Glaucon,” Where “Socrates” explains and describes the life Of
a group of people that have lived their entire lives, chained to one Another
and to a blank rusty blank wall in a cave. This people grow up by just looking At
the shadows of subjects, and people walking by a front of a fire they had
behind them, That
they never knew what it was, and this shadows where reflected on the blank
wall in front of them. However one of the prisoners gets the chance and was Set
free, where he got to experience the real world, and figure that all his life
he was Living
in a lie, that the cave he would called world, wasn’t the real world, that the
real World
was outside the cave, where he experience and learn what was the sun, how birds Looked
like, the grass, and how he learn and could understand now from where this
shadows He
called world came from. Although he got the knowledge of the real and the fake,
this was Not
enough to be humiliated by the rest of the group when he went back to the cave,
trying To
set the others free also from a false world they were in it. The rest of them
would make Fun
of him and ironically they thought he was the crazy one. Never the less he
decided To
go back to a better life, then to be stuck in the world called Cave and the
shadows he could only see.
