Abstract: | Boredom makes time a problem. In order to prevent the onslaught of boredom, Plato construes his notion of an ideal society in such a way as to eliminate the possibility of free time, which hinders us from keeping busy perfecting the basic tasks required for our survival, and fuels, instead, a desire for something other. In this manner, life becomes extravagantly complicated with what Plato terms ‘luxuries’: the spectrum of possibility, much like the spread of a peacock’s tail, a handicap. |
