>>Book 7 of the Republic... "Now imagine what would happen if he went >>down again to take his former seat in the Cave...He might be required once >>more to deliver his opinions on those shadows, in competition with >>the prisoners who had never been released...They would laugh at him and >>say that he had gone up only to come back with his sight ruined...If they >>could lay hands on the man who was trying to set them free and lead >>them up, they would kill him." > >yes, but this is not what is considered 'the allegory of the cave.' > >the allegory of the cave has to do with forms and the differences >between appearance and reality.
