The Original Sceptics by Myles Burnyeat
A Controversy
A collection of essays on ancient Greek skepticism that centers on a debate over whether Pyrrhonian and Academic skeptics could live without beliefs or retained ordinary commitments while suspending judgment on theoretical matters. Through close readings of Hellenistic sources, the contributors explore the aims of skepticism, its argumentative methods, the pursuit of ataraxia, and how skeptical practice informed everyday life, offering interpretations that also speak to enduring questions in epistemology.
