Plato

When socrates died he had a lot of disipults, one of them was Plato. Plato explain in his writings the significance of Socrates philosophies. Plato also questioned the dinamics of reality and this is the fact that makes him so controvertial today.
I think that plato´s thaughts are still mentioned because he speaks about the reality of the world and all the lies and truths about it. On another point of veiw I think that what plato said is very interesting and also confusing because he thaught that an idea is the perfect essence of a thing so in other words he said that everything that is real is also truth and beauty.
Plato was the first rationalist, this means that the only thing that mattered for him was reason. This is very good because he always wanted everything to have an explenation or know what is true or false. For example art was about recreating nature so it is a doble fallacy because you are recreating something that is not truth.
In conclution for me plato was a person that wanted to know a lot about the world, the mind and the reality therfor he created a world that is called the hyperurano ( the world of ideas) in other words the truth that is reflected in our world.
