Descrizione

Plato’s cave and prisoner’s illusory sight of shadows in the Republic are here compared with Tolstoj’s passage from War and peace about Andrej looking to his past as in a magic lantern. A multifocal reading and a Platonic hint about unifying reasoning and storytelling are here applied. Despite obvious differences between the two texts, they allow to discover similar paths, from trompe l’oeil to truthful vision, as a final enlightenment, whose meaning are understanding and compassion.
