TRANSCRIPT

plato / sendak / pope We have now read three stories that deal with both an inner and an outer journey: Plato’s “Parable of the Cave”, Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are, and Paul Pope’s “The Collaborator”. For this assignment I would like you to create a chart in which you compare and contrast Where the Wild Things Are and “The Collaborator” with “Parable of the Cave”. The central theme is the distinction between:

fantasy delusion

belief deception

reality

awareness knowledge

truth
