Please learn the meaning of words before you use them.

Empathy is the capacity to understand or feel what another person is experiencing from within the other person's frame of reference, i.e., the capacity to place oneself in another's position.[1] There are many definitions for empathy that encompass a broad range of emotional states. Types of empathy include cognitive empathy, emotional empathy, and somatic empathy.

Dead people are dead and it is not possible to empathise with them.

When cutting and pasting from Wikipedia, it's usually a good idea to remove the references to footnotes, otherwise you might look like an ignorant Welsh bellend who has to cut and paste from Wikipedia, and you wouldn't want that, would you.
