Blindness in blindness of Raymond Carver Cathedral creates an ambiguous world that can be overcome only under the guidance of people who want to contact the blind. It is also true that the recognition that blind people are blind can only be overcome only when blind people allow intimate relationship with vision. Raymond Carver and his short cathedral account this through the eyes of a man, and he spends the night with the blind Robert. This man not only did not know Robert, but blindly "interrupted" him (Carver 98).
The cathedral is a short story by Raymond Carver. This story forms a sarcastic situation in which the blind man teaches the foresightful person to "see" truly for the first time. Near the end of the story, Carver drew two characters together in the cathedral's picture as a symbolic nucleus of the story. The narrator found at a very early stage that blinds are not particularly wanted in my house. In most stories, he observed one by one and revealed his shallowness. In the next excerpt, he imagines that a blind wife must feel in her bed of death.
The story of Raymond Carver "Cathedral" is about understanding and acceptance of visually handicapped people. The narrator expresses the main theme of the story by overcoming the personal experience and mutual respect, ie prejudice against the blind. Still named speakers have unfounded beliefs and stereotypes about what the blind should be, but in a relatively short period he establishes contact with the blind, and he is a personal I laughed at him. The narrator's invisible concept of blindness has been proved wrong when he first encountered blindness (Robert). The narrator does not think that the blind man is at his house. "This blind man is now sleeping in my house" (230). But as Robert arrived at his house, he was shocked that he did not meet the blind 's opinion. "But he did not use the crutches and did not wear sunglasses, I always thought that black glasses were necessities of the blind" (232)
