Lesson 2.3

Welcome to Unit 2, Lesson 3! Our lesson's objective is below...

How do we know which is the real world? The Republic is a “Socratic” dialogue in which Plato uses the analogy of being led from the shadows of a cave into bright sunlight to explore how individuals perceive and learn about the world. After reading the Republic, students will consider the elements of ancient and classical literature.
