The Dividing Lien of Plato's Allegory of the Cave

Plato's allegory about the cave in the 7th volume of the Republic is one of his most famous fables. Based on several forms of Plato philosophy in the process of the development of the Republic of the Republic (Plato, G.M.A Gulbe, 1993), this analogy is the most impressive, parting line. The dividing line is the boundary between the world of thinking in our life and the world of the sky shape. The fable of this cave helps people understand the theory on which philosophy is based.

The fable of the cave is one of the most famous sentences in the history of Western philosophy. This is an excerpt from the beginning of Volume 7 of the "Republic" book. Plato tells the parable in the context of education, which concerns the nature of philosophy education that ultimately provides insight about the prospects of Plato's education. Socrates is the protagonist of the Republic and conveys the allegory of the cave to the Glaucon. Glaucon is one of Plato 's brothers. In the seventh book of the Republic, Socrates told Glaucon, imagining a group of prisoners who were detained together because they were children of the underground cave, and said he was his opponent. Their hands, feet and neck are tight enough to move. You can see the back wall of the cave in front of their eyes. Socrates said:

The fable of Plato's cave is the beginning of the Republic's Volume 7 (514a-520a) in a dialogue with Plato's teacher Socrates and Plato's brothers Gran. This allegory is presented after the analogy of the solar system (507 b - 509 c) and the analogy of the parting line (509 d - 513 e). In the fable, Plato can not turn heads by comparing untrained people with prisoners trapped in caves with formal theory. They can only see the walls of the cave. I burned a fire behind them. There is a handrail between the fire and the prisoner, and the doll can walk along the railing. The puppet play behind the prisoner raised a doll casting a shadow on the wall of the cave. The pilot's pilot is a person outside the cave walking along this aisle and can include objects in the heads, animals, plants, trees, stones of animals

Plato's allegory to this cave shows this metaphysical separation completely. The fable begins with a cave in which the prisoner is fixed in a picture of the wall on the chair. Plato compares these photos with the expression of the world. And the prisoner forced to stand up, watching where the picture came from, he saw the picture in front of a fire caused by wooden figure movements, only the appearance of the shadow. This is the viewpoint of scientists who studied the cause of the world. When our prisoner slowly adjusted his eyes to the light, he reflected in the water, could see the shadows of the trees, forced to leave the cave to the sun's bright light, the tree (Or, that's left to the left, and ultimately the sun itself, on behalf of the legendary existence itself. Plato's view is a philosopher
