Here's a guy who is known as El Muerto.
Yes, but we were trying to figure out what exactly what was said at the opening of the University of Salamanca by one General Millán Astray and exactly what he meant by it.

I can't speak to that issue. I can only tell you what El Muerto means. Usually, it means the dead one. Occasionally, depending on context, it can simply mean the dead.
The way the General's comment is written reveals that the writer knows little about French and Spanish. "Viva" is Spanish. In French this would be "vive." "La Morte" is French (it is also Italian). Who would combine the two like this?

Didn't this whole nihilist attitude start with Nietsche? Or have I got the wrong gloomy, screwed-up German philosopher? Nietzsche blamed it on Socrates.
