Resumen: El presente artículo propone un comentario a la descripción de la peste en Tucídides, especialmente al tramo de texto en el cual se constata que la nivelación de las diferencias, el desprecio de las normas, la primacía del placer y la búsqueda del interés individual son algunas de las consecuencias de la extraordinaria enfermedad. Este último punto se elabora mediante dos referencias complementarias: el diálogo “Critón” y el discurso de Demóstenes “Sobre la corona”.
This paper offers a commentary on the description of the plague in Thucydides’ history, specially on the textual part in which the dissolution of differences, the disrespect for the norms (or laws), the primacy of the immediate pleasure and the search of the individual interest are presented as consequences of this extraordinary disease. This last issue is argued along with two further references: first, to Plato’s “Crito”; second, to Demosthenes’ speech “On the crown”
