Description

Plato's definition of knowledge as "justified true belief" fits centrally into his broader theory of knowledge and his metaphysical framework. This definition is a crucial component of his epistemology, serving as a bridge between his metaphysical distinctions (between the world of Forms and the physical world) and his ethical and political theories.  In this episode, we'll explore what Plato classified as  true knowledge, elucidated by his famous Allegory of the Cave and idea of Forms.
