description The notion that life is meaningful through choosing to live well has historically received substantive attention in various

philosophical circles, notably the ancient Greek philosophers Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, and more recently several

of the existentialists. In some respects, the idea of choosing to live well is a ?thematization? of two widely-recognized,

independent components of a meaningful life: happiness and authenticity. I develop this notion of choosing to live well

by exploring, developing, and relating these conceptions of happiness and authenticity. By appealing to a very basic

account of human nature that has found favor among a great number of people, I show how happiness and

authenticity complement each other as conditions for the possibility of living meaningfully.

sustancial en varios círculos filosóficos, principalmente entre los antiguos filósofos griegos Sócrates, Platón y

Aristóteles, y más recientemente de varios de los existencialistas. En algunos aspectos, la idea de escoger vivir bien

es una ?tematización? de dos componentes independientes, ampliamente reconocidos como propios de una vida

significativa: felicidad y autenticidad. El autor desarrolla la noción de escoger vivir bien explorando, desarrollando y

relacionando estos conceptos. Por medio de la apelación a una explicación muy básica de la naturaleza humana,

aceptada por gran número de personas, se muestra cómo felicidad y autenticidad se complementan una con otra

como condiciones para la posibilidad de vivir significativamente.
