Abstract

El artículo se propone destacar la importancia de lo que Sócrates llama «ensalmos» o«conjuros», fundamentalmente en el Fedón, aludiendo con ello al problema del «miedo» que aparece bajo la imagen de un «niño» atemorizado, que impide la aceptación plena de la verdad o del argumento demostrado. Palabras clave: Ensalmo; Miedo; Verdad; SócratesThis paper intends to highlight the importance of what Socrates calls «incantations» or «spells», fundamentally in Phaido, hinting with it at the problem of «fear». The latter, appearing as a frightened «child», impedes full acceptance of truth or truthful argument. Keywords: Incantation; Fear; Truth; Socrates
