[SOLVED] Concluding Essay
In 500-550 words, answer the following question as with as much of your voice as possible. Include in-text citations for all sources (including the text) that you use. The goal of this essay is to analyze the difference between appearance and reality. What is real is not a straightforward and obvious thing. For instance, when we place a pencil in a glass of water, the pencil appears to bend, but we understand that to be an optical illusion. We want to explore the criteria for something to be considered real as emphasized by Plato and Aristotle. Consider Plato’s allegory of the cave. What happens in this allegory? What does Plato assume about about reality within the story? What’s real, what’s merely appearance, and why? Do you agree? If so why? If not, what’s missing in Plato’s account?
