Allegory of the Cave

In Platos Allegory of the Cave both the captives and the puppeteers are imprisoned by the Cave. Have you experienced something in your life, especially something in contemporary society, that would be comparable to this intellectual confinement? Describe a time (e.g., your education, your growing to adulthood) when you were in the role of the prisoner, or perhaps the puppeteer. How did you realize you were in this situation? Explain how philosophy can free you from the contemporary Cave. Have you achieved the freedom to see what causes the metaphorical shadows on the wall?
