"Picture men dwelling in a sort of subterrainian cavern with a long entrance open to the light on it's entire width... Like to us... Tell me do you see that these men would have seen anything of themselves or of one another except the shadows cast from the fire on the wall of the cave that confronted them?"

- Socrates

Is this exerpt based on the ignorance of humanity? Event horizon? Or am I over-analyzing again.

And what is the technique called for: "... Like to us..."
Or how would you explain that?
