| 总结: | This article draws inspiration from Plato’s Allegory of the Cave (see Rep., VII 514b-520a). The allegory is situated within the socio-political and cultural milieu that profoundly influenced Plato’s philosophical inquiry. Throughout his quest, Plato consistently maintained a profound tension towards the Good, seeking to align it with the well-being of the polis. This article explores the core elements of Platonic thought to gain a deeper understanding of the allegory. In particular, it draws upon the philosophical analysis of Simone Weil, who utilizes this metaphor to illuminate the soul’s journey of conversion towards God. This conversion unfolds as a gradual detachment from all that is inessential. In anticipation of grace descending to fill the resulting void, there emerges an active receptivity to grace - to the good that emanates from above. At the heart of the human spirit lies a profound yearning that echoes like an inalienable desire, mirroring this longing for the divine. |
