Bartleby- allegory of the cave
In Plato’s allegory of the cave, there are four prisoner one in which escapes. This prisoner now enlightened with new found knowledge early tries to teach it to the other, but to no avail, for they are stuck in their ways. Plato used this allegory to explain why his friend and teach Socrates was sentenced to death and also why he would not preach his ideals more aggressively. Bartleby does too (like the prisoner) to a realization. Did he not retaliate because of fear of prosecution or did he feel those around him will not “get it”?
