    Plato was believed to have been a dualist‚ he believed in two worlds: The World of Appearances and The World of Forms. In his opinion‚ the world we currently live in is what he would have called the World of Appearances. Everything we sense‚ feel‚ touch‚ smell‚ etc is ’real’.

    ‘Explain what Plato meant by the Form of the Good’ (25) Plato believed in two worlds‚ the material world and the world of the Forms.

    Platonic concept of Forms. Plato believed that reality is more than what we sense around the world (e.g. taste‚ smell‚ hear‚ see and touch)‚ he believed that behind these physical realities lies a perfect version of them in which he called Forms and that the greatest thing we can learn is to have knowledge and understanding of them. Plato’s theory means that what we can sense around us (for example a chair) is just a mere shadow of the perfect version which exists in the world of Forms. The perfect version

    Allegory of the Cave Plato realizes that the general run of humankind can think‚ and speak‚ without any awareness of his realm of Forms. The allegory of the cave is supposed to explain this. In the allegory‚ Plato likens people untutored in the Theory of Forms to prisoners chained in a cave‚ unable to turn their heads. All they can see is the wall of the cave. Behind them burns a fire. Between the fire and the prisoners there is a parapet‚ along which puppeteers can walk. The
