Not only did Pyrrhonism play an important part in the philosophical scene of the Hellenistic and Imperial age, but it also had a tremendous impact on Renaissance and modern philosophy and continues to be a topic of lively discussion among both scholars of ancient philosophy and epistemologists. The focus and inspiration of the book is the brand of Pyrrhonism expounded in the extant works of Sextus Empiricus. Its aim is twofold: to offer a critical interpretation of some of the central aspects of Sextus's skeptical outlook and to examine certain debates in contemporary philosophy from a neo-Pyrrhonian perspective. The first part explores the aim of skeptical inquiry, the defining features of Pyrrhonian argumentation, the epistemic challenge posed by the Modes of Agrippa, and the Pyrrhonist's stance on the requirements of rationality. The second part focuses on present-day discussions of the epistemic significance of disagreement, the limits of self-knowledge, and the nature of rationality. The book will appeal to researchers and graduate students interested in skepticism. 001445664 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 5, 2022). 001445664 650_0 $$aSkepticism. 001445664 650_6 $$aScepticisme. 001445664 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001445664 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030912094$$z9783030912093$$w(OCoLC)1277281891 001445664 830_0 $$aSynthese library ;$$vv. 450.$$x2542-8292 001445664 852__ $$bebk 001445664 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-91210-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001445664 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1445664$$pGLOBAL_SET 001445664 980__ $$aBIB 001445664 980__ $$aEBOOK 001445664 982__ $$aEbook 001445664 983__ $$aOnline 001445664 994__ $$a92$$bISE
