The City of Atlantis


In the painting by Raphael "School Of Athens" I feel that I am Plato, the man in the center. Plato loves conspiracies about the world. The man in the painting has written about the death of Atlantis and has described this "sunken city" in such detail. I feel that I am Plato because of the bond and similarities we share, looking at conspiracies at different angles. Some people may not know Plato that well because he isn't well known but the legacy of this man is enormous. This philosopher has studied with one of the most important man in mathimatical history, Pythagoras. Writings of Plato has been in many intrests to me but the one that gets my attention the most is the city of Atlantis.
