We invite you to read the new book “Plato’s cave image in Anthropos by E. E. Cummings” by Collegium Civitas lecturer Dr. Jaroslaw Mark Spychala.

The publication is a bridge connecting the worlds of philosophy and art. “Plato’s cave image in Anthropos by E. E. Cummings,” written by Jaroslaw Marek Spychała, is the first such study devoted to the work “Anthropos: The Future of Art” by Edward Estlin Cummings. This remarkable play, first published in 1930 and not staged until four decades later, still seems insufficiently appreciated and studied today.

Dr. Spychala’s book guides us through the maze of philosophical interpretations, focusing on analyzing Plato’s image of the cave, a key motif in Cummings’ work. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to explore art and philosophy and for those who seek inspiration from the classics of philosophical thought.

The publication (in English) is available in two versions: printed and electronic, so any interested reader will find a convenient form.
