When Pandora's Box was made, it was filled with all the evils in the world. Then, why is hope inside it too? Is Hope one of the ancient evils in the box, or was it misplaced? What would've happened if it was unleashed?
The story of Pandora is usually interpreted that even with all the evils set loose upon the world, there is still hope left inside the box. It was usually thought as an encouraging that one shouldn't lose hope. But is it truly meant that way?
By trapping hope inside the box, doesn't it mean that it's not set free upon the world? Does it mean that, by the author's view, that the humans are hopeless? And back to the original question. Why is hope in that box at the first place?
An unimportant question, perhaps, but interesting nonetheless. Hope can be dangerous. It can be one of the evils. Because Hope is so very close with Delusion. Nietzsche once said that hope is the evil that prolongs human's suffering, and while I don't agree with him, but I can see his point.
