RESUMO
Neste ensaio foram observados aspectos importantes das deliberações do júri e como a
democracia se apresenta nessas situações. Usou -se como objeto de análise duas passagens
da Grécia Antiga, uma da ficção teatral e, a outra, um relato históri co. A Eumênides, escrita por
Ésquilo, e a Apologia de Sócrates, nas versões de Platão e de Xenofonte, são exemplos
instigantes de deliberações democráticas em tribunais. Nelas, o que se decide é a vida ou a
morte do réu. As características da democracia foram analisadas para a melhor compreensão
dos traços deliberativos de um júri. Os pensamentos de René Girard, Nietzsche e Hobbes
ajudaram a compreender aspectos da antropologia filosófica, no que diz respeito principalmente
à natureza humana, de tal modo a esclarecer questões sobre o agir que interferem no julgamento
e que podem ser úteis para o aprimoramento do sistema democrático. Utilizou -se o método de
pesquisa qualitativo bibliográfico, com ênfase na apreciação dos textos literários, tendo po r
objetivo a busca de inferências corroboradas pelo pensamento dos autores supracitados.

object of analysis, one from theatrical fiction and the other from a historical report. The
Eumenides, written by Aeschylus, and the Apology of Socrates, in versions by Plato an d
Xenophon, are thought -provoking examples of democratic court deliberations. In them, what is
