The allegory of the cave
Well, after that, I say, you represent and how our nature is affected by education and lack of education. Imagine, then both men in an underground dwelling in a cave, the cave with the entrance open to the light along its entire length, in which they have since childhood, legs and neck chains to stay in place and [514B] only see before them, unable to turn his head because of the chains, and yet light on them from above and below, a fire burning behind them and even then, between the fire and the prisoners, a road on the hill, along which just imagine what builds a wall, similar to fences placed before men by the makers of miracles, above which they show their prodigies.
I see, "he said
Well now see along this wall of men wearing [514c] also utensils of all kinds beyond the wall, and statues of men [515] and other animals stone and wood and various books, as it should, some carriers are hearing sounds while others are silent.
Strange, "he said, the picture you describe, chained and strange!
Similar to us, I replied them because, first, for themselves and each other, do you think they could see anything but the shadows cast by the fire on the part of the cave facing them?
How then, he says, it is true they are forced to keep their head motionless [515b] all their lives?
And what about objects transported? Is not it not for them as well?
What?
Well! without doubt, they were able to interact, do not you think that because of this, they take things for themselves that which they see?
Necessarily. And what else if
over the prison produced an echo from the party facing them? Each time one of the passersby would hear a sound, do you think they might believe that the sound heard comes from elsewhere than the passing shadow?
By Jove, certainly not!
[515c] Certainly, I replied, those could not believe that truth is nothing but the shadows of objects made.
Of necessity, he said.
Consider now, I replied, their deliverance and healing channels and ignorance: what would happen if they happened in nature that here? If only one of them is issued and suddenly compelled to stand and also to turn his neck and walking and looking up toward the light, and even then he does that, he feels pain and is also unable, because of the flashes of light, contemplate what [515d] before he saw the shadows, what do you think he would say if someone told him before he saw nonsense but now a little closer to what is and facing things that most of its existence, he sees more just, and moreover, showing him each of the things that pass before him, he was forced to respond by questioning by saying this? Do not you think it would be in trouble and he would think he saw things more real than those previously shown to him now?
And even a lot! he said.
[515th] And if then also it is forced to look to the light itself, that it would hurt his eyes and he would steal away, turning to what he is capable of contemplating, and that that it would take to actually clearer that what he shows?
That, he said.
If so, I replied, someone pulled him away by force through the rocky and steep climb, and do not let go until you have shot out to the sunlight, is it does not grieved [516a] and do not be indignant abused, and when he would come to light, with eyes full of sunshine, could see nothing of what we now call true?
Probably not, "he said, at least not right away.
So always, I think it would take to get to see any the things above. And first of all what are arguably the shadows as easily as he looked, then after that the images of men in the water and the other thing, and finally this same; from there, which is in the heaven and heaven itself, he could observe them, probably more easily at night, looking the opposite [516b] light of the stars and moon that day the sun and the sun.
How then could it be otherwise?
At the end of course, I think, is the sun, not its images without consistency in water or some other place, but itself as in itself in its own space, that he could contemplate and examine as it is.
Necessarily, "he said.
And after that, he would conclude soon about it is that it produces the seasons and years and it governs everything [516c] which is in the visible, and everything they do- themselves felt in some way involved.
Obviously, he says, after that, he would come to these conclusions!
And what else? Recollecting his first home and wisdom out there and his companions chain so do not you think that for him, he would welcome the change and they by cons, he would take into pity?
Absolutely!
And the marks of honor and praise, while some progress had them then, and prerogatives granted more penetrating examination of this parade, and remembering the best of what he used to spend first, or last, [516d] or whole, and thus why most able to predict what would happen, do you think he would still have the desire and envy that those of them who were honored and empowered, or that he would experience the same feeling as in Homer and would prefer a thousand times "be a farmer in the service of another man without resources" and suffer anything rather than this this way of thinking and living there?
[516th] That's it., "He said, I think me too suffer everything rather than resign himself to this life there!
Now, think about this, I replied. If it went down again to resume its place on its head, is it would not look soiled by the darkness, coming suddenly from the sun?
Quite sure, "he said.
And then these shadows again if he had fought hard in his opinions on them with those who have been shackled, as he has poor eyesight, [517a] before his eyes are restored - And time to get used is not short, far from it! - Do not lend it to laugh and say we do not him to be mounted up there, and he returns the damaged eyes, and it's not worth the trouble to try to go there high? And he who would undertake to deliver them and raise them, if indeed they can hold in their hands and kill him, do not they kill?
And how! he said. "
