Suggested readings:
Plato's _Republic_, book 7)
(specifically the allegory of the cave)
_Treatise concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge_, George Berkeley
(after tumbling through these reading Descartes' _Philosophical
Writings_ might be useful).
(Kierkegaard discussed some issues related to this once, but I can't
remember in which book)
Others too...
