O mito da Caverna (Alegoria Da Caverna) de Platão - Resumo animado

and Plato's myth of the cave is a metaphor that makes us reflect on various aspects of Human Reason in this video I bring a narrative about this myth and also talk a little about its meaning So if we go there with me and there folks Alright my name is Paulo and everyone is very welcome here to Jesus Estrada today a little different content here on the channel talking about philosophy and the chosen theme was the cave allegory or myth of the cave of the great philosopher Plato the video is divided into two parts in the

first I'll narrate the allegory and in the second explain a little of its meanings So I need you to stay with me until the end of the video to understand it right there, okay so come on the myth of the cave or allegory of the cave is a story narrated by Plato in his book The Republic bringing a dialogue between Glaucon and Socrates and inviting us to make several reflections on human knowledge but we will address this later on. end of the video imagine a cave separated from the outside world by a high wall whose

entrance allows the passage of the outer Light now imagine that inside this cave live some human beings that generation after generation live there Chained unable to move their head to the entrance and move around being always forced to look only at the back wall without ever having seen the outside world or the sunlight now imagine that the top of the wall a light coming from the outside caused by a fire and illuminates the interior of the cave causing all things that happen outside are projected in there like shadows outside people talking and carrying on their

shoulders figures of men women and animals these people these objects cast shadows inside the cave the prisoners in turn judge that these shadows are external things themselves or be the living beings that live outside the cave on a certain day one of the prisoners out of curiosity decides to run away yuck me opening with the instrument manages to break the chain and escape the cave when he arrives outside at the first moment he is totally blinded by the sun's light because his eyes were only used to the cave's darkness but little by little he gets

used to that light and starts to seeing the world normally immediately he realizes that everything he had come into contact with from inside the cave was just an illusion it was just shadows not reflecting the true reality of the outside world realizing it He Decides to return to the cave to alert his fellows to the true reality of the outer world But this return will not be easy For He will need to get used to the darkness again Which is much more difficult than getting used to them In addition to alerting the other people who

live in the cave about the true reality of the world exterior he will be discredited and will even run the risk of being killed by those people who did not leave the cave so b This is the myth of Plato's cave as you could see It is very full of metaphors So this second part and I'll explain to you what it means but before that if you're enjoying video give that moral leave a like there because it helps a lot if you subscribe to the channel if you like the content and leave the comment there

in other words all the mistaken knowledge that we've acquired a course of life through Through the Senses the instrument used to break the chains is the dialectic or ideas the knowledge the exchange of ideas The Search for the truth the curious boy who escapes is the philosopher and the return cave It's Di is basically the myth of the cave is a Metaphor created by Plato trying to explain the condition of ignorance in which human beings live imprisoned by the senses and prejudices that prevent us from knowing the truth so tell me in the comments What
