What was it like to be a practitioner of Pyrrhonist skepticism?
This important volume brings together for the first time a
selection of Richard Bett's essays on ancient Pyrrhonism, allowing
readers a better understanding of the key aspects of this school of
thought. The volume examines Pyrrhonism's manner of
self-presentation, including its methods of writing, its desire to
show how special it is, and its use of humor; it considers
Pyrrhonism's argumentative procedures regarding specific topics,
such as signs, space, or the Modes; and it explores what it meant
in practice to live as a Pyrrhonist, including the kind of ethical
outlook which Pyrrhonism might allow and, in general, the character
of a skeptical life - and how far these might strike us as feasible
or desirable. It also shows how Pyrrhonism often raises questions
that matter to us today, both in our everyday lives and in our
philosophical reflection.
