Our in-depth explorations of The Matrix begin with Ancient Greece, in particular with Plato and his Allegory of the Cave, and the Greco-Roman god of dreams, Morpheus.
We also spontaneously draw parallels between The Matrix and Shakespeare's Macbeth, dip just a little bit into political readings of the films, and as is our tendency, reference The Office far more than necessary.
Read a free copy of the Allegory of the Cave; check out Geraldo Nascimento's The Matrix Illuminated. Background on the Greek god Morpheus.
