This is the second in a series of lectures with @alejandrophase2 tracing the imagery of Enlightenment in the Western philosophical tradition. I discuss the cave imagery in Bacon's New Organon regarding the Idols. Afterwards, Alejandro provides invaluable insights into Vico's use of the cave imagery with explicit reference to Bacon.
