Cinema Roads to the Platonic Image of the Cave

The aim of this article is to prove the real possibility of travelling intellectually to the Platonic image of the cave from different films. In this sense, one can speak of explicit references as in The Conformist by B. Bertolucci or in Shadowlands by R. Attenborough -if one bears in mind the Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis- or The Picture of Dorian Gray ¿if one bears in mind the well-known O. Wilde¿s novel-, but, on other occasions, although the Platonic influence cannot be proved, for instance in The Truman Show, A Room with a View or Brideshead Revisited, one can perfectly think of these films in order to guide the contemporary audiences to that Platonic image, since Plato himself affirms that it deals with an image which can be easily applied and, in first place, to his idealistic philosophy.

Imatge emotiva i irracional de la humanitat en el cinema. Una aplicació pedagògica

El imaginario colectivo actual, reflejado sobre todo en el cine, muestra una profunda transformación de las características esenciales de la humanidad. La racionalidad ha sido desplazada por otros aspectos tradicionalmente relegados a lo irracional, lo animal, lo corporal, como la emotividad, el deseo, las pasiones. La ciencia-ficción y el cine expresan perfectamente esta deriva, pero no son las únicas manifestaciones. Juntamente con algunos ejemplos cinematográficos, este artículo extrae otros provenientes de la filosofía o la literatura modernas, así como de las barbaries sociales contemporáneas -genocidio, colonialismo¿ y alguna otra nota del campo de la neurología científica y la inteligencia artificial.
