Anyone read it?
If so, I'd love to (for lack of a better word) read some thoughts, especially on Book 7, where he talks about the whole "cave" notion. Do you see any flaws in it? Could it possibly be flawed? Do we live in a "cave"? What do you think the cave represents? I'll share my opinion later :) |

We're reading the Allegory of the Cave in my Theory of Knowledge class. It's a good read and he makes a lot of good points, and do see it as very true in a sense, but I haven't really thought of it enough to make an opinion on it.
