American literature of the Vietnam war is essentially colonial in form and focus. You may use examples from poetry, science fiction and other forms (such as music) to justify or challenge this claim.

Speaking of the idea of forms, such as dealt with in Plato’s allegory of the cave. The prisoners see but a shadow of the true form and since knowing nothing else believe it to be the true form.

Keeping this in mind, If we were to see a perfect example of something, lets say a personal relationship, would we be able to recognise it?

Since we are surrounded and have grown up in a world where imperfect systems are the norm. and every situation could hold some form of treachery with every friend having the possibility of holding a knife behind your back, would we be able to go "Ahh, that is the way that things should be"? Or would we not be able to see the forest for the trees?

Would we be able to recognise it if we see it?

Serious answers only please.

Thanks.
