.PLATO’S MYTH OF THE CAVE.



PLATO’S MYTH OF THE CAVE

Plato



The allegory of the cave

The allegory of the cave is metaphor. Even though we may consider it as a metaphor for numerous things, Plato uses it as a metaphor to describe his theory of the forms.
Prisoners in a cave can only see shadows which exhibit the reality ad there is nothing more to life. They can see the world once they escape from the prison.
Plato has divided boundary of knowledge. Generally, at the nethermost, is our visual perception of the physical materials on the biosphere, which he compares to prisoners in a cave seeing shadows. At the topmost of the boundary, is mathematics and forms.
The forms are indescribable which inclusive the roundness, liberty and perfection. Everybody in the world may become longer bloom with blissful, but that does not destroy the concept of happiness. For example:

Religious experience or being free from any religion
once we know that there is something beyond the innermost of the cave and the shadows on the wall, the desire to see it overwhelming and tends to do anything to see the light on the outside.


Example the theory which relates to our real life nowadays..?
  • The Christians and Atheist cluster always arguing over the existence of God. They are so busy rebelling over what happens when they die, that the blinders, blind them from life. They get over that the important part is living our life in a way that we feel is morally acceptable, we all should do this regardless of our view on God, yet these groups will fight over God rather than what is right and wrong in this world, now, and working on things we can entirely consent o, which includes preventing murder, theft, and suffering as much as possible.
I could be wrong, but it is just something that I think really shows people putting blinders on and not noticing what happens around them, the things in this life is that they can fix, instead of the next life, which they can’t control. 


.SYLLOGISM.

.S Y L L O G I S M.
Mark Anthony


Syairah :
Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears:
According to Brutus, An honorable man,
Caesar was an ambitious man,
Ambitious man brought many captives or restrained home to Rome,
But Caesar did not fill the coffins with any ransoms,
Therefore, Caesar is not ambitious,
and Thus, Brutus is not an honorable man as he incriminates Caesar with no concrete evidence.

Aniza Salwa:
Anthony speak not to disapprove what Brutus spoke,
Anthony speech was based on his stand,
He disagree for what Brutus spoke,
Therefore, his speak was to disapprove what Brutus spoke.

Anis Suhaila:
Brutus says he was ambitious,
No ambitious man refuse a Kingly crown in the Lupercal,
Yet, Caesar did thrice refuse,
Hence Caesar was not an ambitious man,
But sure Brutus is an honorable man.

.METAPHOR AND SIMILE.



  • Love is blind
  • Death is salvation
  • Beverage is a dish that best served cold
  • Life is a journey
  • Time is gold
  • Being in home is heaven
  • Broken heart is like a scratch CD. 


SIMILE



  • Life is like a box of chocolate
  • As beautiful as a moon
  • Starvation is like thousands of pricking needles in stomach
  • Other examples of SIMILE:

*      Ridiculous Similes in Music History (Nelly Furtado – “I’m Like A Bird”)
Offending Lyric:
“I’m like a bird, I’ll only fly away/ I don’t know where my soul is, I don’t know where my home is”
 While birds may not be terribly preoccupied with metaphysical questions about the location of their souls, they most certainly know where their homes are. It's sort of what they're known for. Homing pigeons, for example, have been let out of cages half way across the country and somehow managed to find their way back home.
Perhaps a more fitting, albeit less poetic, choice would be for Nelly to compare herself to a homeless man with a hang-glider or a jet pack. This new lyric balances her absence of a home with her soul.
