Sample<\/a><\/p>\n

The Divided Line<\/em>\u00a0is the first book in the Noumenal Realm Trilogy, which focuses on the unconventional educational initiatives of an institution called the New Smithsonian Foundation, whose aim is to educate the children of America through virtual reality experiences instead of through the Smithsonian Institution\u2019s dusty museum artifacts. In this novel, a group of middle schoolers enter famous paintings, where they meet Socrates, Plato, and Ren\u00e9 Descartes, who show them the secret to entering the Noumenal Realm. The students have to interpret the paintings and the philosophers\u2019 theories in order to complete the simulations and escape from virtual reality.<\/p>\n

The storyline of this volume focuses on the famous \u201cAnalogy of the Divided Line\u201d from Plato\u2019s masterpiece of world literature\u00a0The Republic<\/em>. Socrates divides a line into four sections in order to show how the human mind progresses from imagination to facts to concepts to ideas. But is the goal of this progression certainty, as Ren\u00e9 Descartes argues? The young heroes of this novel discover a fatal flaw in Descartes\u2019s logic and find the goal of the Divided Line hidden in a Grecian urn instead.<\/p>\n

Although each novel in the trilogy stands alone, it is best to read them all, and in order, to enjoy the full effect of the storyline.<\/p>\n
