i have been studying philosophy lately and was looking into the idea of empiricism when i (by chance) came across a famous philosopher named John Locke.
The philosphers' characteristics and views were very similar to that of the fictional character Locke. There was mention of "Tabula Rosa" which means "clean slate". Also the philosophers connection with past experiences, etc. I cant remember in which season it was, but there was an episode called "Tabula rosa" as i recall. It may have been a coincidence, however i cant help but feel there is a significant connection. Also if there is, does this mean that all the characters in lost are based on real people from different schools of thought? Heres a link link Do let us know if you've come across anything similar... |
