Plato paints a picture of the individual emancipated by knowledge and experience. Yet, the man who emerges from the cave also finds his companions unreceptive to his discoveries. Many have read Plato’s allegory as a treatise on the limits of human perception; as innovators and prophets arise, they are met with hostile scorn and so their insights go unutilized. However, is it possible that once a man achieves greatness, either of intellect or discovery, he becomes corrupted by hubris? Having been anointed as saviors by science or the academy, do the emancipators often become the oppressors? Please implement one quote from the reading in your response, which should be a paragraph in length.
