Pero el silencio del <em>daimonion<\/em> se limitar\u00eda a probar que la muerte es ahora buena para \u00e9l a causa de su avanzada edad (cf. <a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/apologia-plato-042\/\">41d4<\/a> y <em>Crit\u00f3n<\/em>, 43b10-11). S\u00f3crates demuestra, en consecuencia, que existe la gran esperanza de que la muerte sea simplemente buena. Estar muerto es una de dos cosas: o bien es no ser nada y no tener conciencia de nada, o bien es, de acuerdo con lo que se dice, alg\u00fan cambio y migraci\u00f3n del alma desde este lugar de aqu\u00ed hacia alg\u00fan otro lugar. Al analizar la primera alternativa, S\u00f3crates guarda silencio sobre la muerte como completa aniquilaci\u00f3n y sobre la cuesti\u00f3n de si el miedo a la muerte as\u00ed entendida no est\u00e1 de acuerdo con la naturaleza. Habla s\u00f3lo de la muerte como un dormir sin sue\u00f1os. Si la muerte fuera eso, ser\u00eda un maravilloso beneficio: si alguien tuviera que escoger esa noche en que durmi\u00f3 tan profundamente que ni siquiera so\u00f1\u00f3 y, contrast\u00e1ndola con las dem\u00e1s noches y los dem\u00e1s d\u00edas de su vida, fuera a decir, luego de la debida consideraci\u00f3n, cu\u00e1ntos de esos d\u00edas y esas noches los ha pasado mejor y en forma m\u00e1s placentera que aquella noche, pr\u00e1cticamente todos comprobar\u00edan que para contarlos bastar\u00edan los dedos de una mano si se los compara con los dem\u00e1s d\u00edas y noches. La ambig\u00fcedad del p\u00e1rrafo insin\u00faa el car\u00e1cter dudoso del pensamiento: S\u00f3crates el t\u00e1bano, el que despierta de la modorra, como el panegirista del m\u00e1s profundo sue\u00f1o. Se podr\u00eda decir, por supuesto, que en el dormir sin sue\u00f1os uno no cree saber lo que no sabe y, en consecuencia, estar en posesi\u00f3n de esa sabidur\u00eda humana que es de poco o ning\u00fan valor. Pero, como hemos visto, esta descripci\u00f3n negativa de la preocupaci\u00f3n de S\u00f3crates fue gradualmente reemplazada por una descripci\u00f3n m\u00e1s positiva, seg\u00fan la cual el mayor bien para el hombre es intercambiar, todos los d\u00edas, discursos acerca de la virtud y cosas afines o \u00abfilosofar\u00bb, ya que una vida sin examen no es digna de ser vivida.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-apologia-y-criton-struthio-020\/\">Perge ad sequ\u0113ns caput<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-apologia-y-criton-struthio-018\/\">Redde ad prius caput<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-apologia-y-criton-struthio-019\/\">Perge ad initium paginae huius<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-la-apologia-y-el-criton-struthio\/#indice-de-contenidos\">Perge ad indicem<\/a><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Le\u014dnard\u012b Str\u016bthi\u014dnis verba 19<\/span><\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\">Socrates does not then leave matters now at saying that he does not know whether death is an evil. But the silence of the <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\"><i>daimonion<\/i><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\"> might not prove more than that death is good for Socrates now because of his old age (cf. <\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/apologia-plato-042\/\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\">41d<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\">4<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\"> and <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\"><i>Crito<\/i><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\"> 43b10-11). He shows therefore that there is great hope that death is simply good. To be dead is one of two things: it is either to be nothing and have no awareness of anything, or it is, in accordance with what is said, some change and migration of the soul from the place here to another place. In discussing the first alternative, Socrates is silent on death as complete annihilation and on the question of whether fear of death thus understood is not according to nature. He speaks only of death as a state of dreamless sleep. If death is this, it would be a marvellous gain: if someone had to pick out that night in which he slept so profoundly as not even to dream, and, contrasting it with the other nights and days of his life, were to say after due consideration how many days and nights in his life he has spent better and more pleasantly than that night, practically everyone would find that they are easy to count compared with the other days and nights. The ambiguous sentence intimates the doubtful character of the thought: Socrates the gadfly, the awakener from drowsiness, as the encomiast of the profoundest sleep. One could say of course that in dreamless sleep one does not believe that one knows what one does not know and is therefore in possession of that human wisdom which is of little or no worth. But, as we have seen, this negative account of Socrates\u2019 concern was gradually superseded by a more positive account according to which it is the greatest good for man to exchange speeches every day about virtue and kindred things or to \u201cphilosophize,\u201d and an unexamined life is not worth living for man.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-apologia-y-criton-struthio-020\/\">Perge ad sequ\u0113ns caput<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-apologia-y-criton-struthio-018\/\">Redde ad prius caput<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-apologia-y-criton-struthio-019\/\">Perge ad initium paginae huius<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atriumphilosophicum.es\/home\/wiki\/sobre-la-apologia-y-el-criton-struthio\/#indice-de-contenidos\">Perge ad indicem<\/a><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">I\u016bra<\/span><\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">El texto en lengua inglesa fue publicado de manera p\u00f3stuma en un volumen en honor al prof.
