Introduction
Plato, a philosopher used symbolism to draw out the meaning of human’s mental quagmire as humans attempt to redefine objectiveness in life. According to Kreiss, through the Allergy of the cave, the allergy is presented as the sense in which we reveal our world, yet it is actually not exactly that, rather, an intellectual approach can comprehensively depict our viewpoint about our perception and insight about our world (Kreiss, p. 1). Here intellectualism is put on the spot as core in making the society enlightened. Enlightenment, according to Plato provides wisdom and direction courtesy of intellectual within the society.
Literature review
Brodeur and Orwell in their book 1984, draws out a picture of what entails a humans mentality about reality. The complex web of ideas, intentions and objectives, as observed in the book ‘George Orwell’s 1984’ is literary not possible to define or understand. Intellectually, perceiving the latter can provide insight about the reality of human intent, hopes and observation about its passion/desire to consummate imparted feelings, aspirations, and intentions offset by reality (White, pp. 157-169).
Border and Orwell suggest that reality is as result of an order that is inherent. Parents have to lead and exemplify handwork and discipline as core in the process of life for their children to take up such habits (Brodeur & Orwell, p. 18). Cognition is affirmed as core in the process of intent development. According to Classic Philosophers, Plato affirmed the distinctiveness of inderivability to provide an insight one how ones mind conceives a concept from a specific and logical viewpoint. Plato attaches the precedence of intellective over sensitive knowledge to makes of our concepts more than representative signs of what we desire to achieve in reality; it is an inner desire or an allergy that can be eased by achieving the conceptualized intent (“Radical Academy”).
The relationship between Plato’s approach and the George Orwell’s 1984 is observed within the Broduer and Orwell’s illustrations of life’s daily facets. Brodeur and Orwell conceptualize the human diligence and constant thoughts. By exemplifying their insights about the many things that cross ones mind through a diary, ‘Big Brother is watching’ becomes a symbol of the consistency of suspicion and fear of wrong doing, aspiration to achieve objectives, intents, desire, and indulgence (Brodeur, and Orwell, pp. 10-19).
The crime of thought, as Winston’s children call it is a serious crime; It onsets infidelity, intent of murder, corruption and other vagrant social realities. Reality is replicated in our minds through thought. In George Orwell’s 1984, thoughts consummate to dreams and the future, as we hope it would be, is defined and presented. Winston dreams about O’Brien, which is indicative of a correlation between Plato’s presentations of hope for a reality through the symbolism of ‘an allergy.” Indeed, the thoughts, a subsequent dream, and then the intent to purport and consummate is like an allergy that cannot be achieved physically, but intellectually (Brodeur & Orwell, pp. 18-19).
Discussion
According to Steinhoff, affluence implied an abridgement of human liberty and might even lead to a lobotomy performed on the human spirit, but they had not observed that the myth of comfort is inadequately grounded in human nature (Steinhoff, pp. 123-236). About presenting ideas as reality, Plato based on Socrates teachings affirm that concepts are realistic offshoots of intent and do exists social and moral construct where factualness of intent and perception is seen as logic and morality (“Radical Academy”). Winston is representative of concepts via his diary and intent to keep a secret. This part provides insight about how we hide things from others, lie, and commit crimes without being caught (White, pp. 157-169). In Plato’s view, realities shroud the mystery of life and the intent of our minds. The daily facets of life are indicative of diverse ideologies about concept. It is how we conceptualize life through idealizing our hopes with observation. Learning is a process, that depends on an order of cognitive development and a systemized process that runs along a long trajectory observed as life (“Radical Academy”).
