Allegory
A story with meanings on several levels
Why does Plato use this Allegory?
1. Express progress of the mind from the lowest stages of enlightenment to knowledge of the Good
2. Show a contrast of those who see (philosophers) and those who cannot
3. Express his views on who should be in charge - the more rational and enlightened beings ( philosophers)
