Epoché and the Ten Modes of Scepticism
Křibská, Jana ; Thein, Karel (advisor) ; Špinka, Štěpán (referee)
The objective of this thesis is to outline Pyrrhonian Scepticism, its development and main representatives. In accordance with primary sources, I try to analyze the Modes of Scepticism, point out its similarities and dissimilarities and if appropriate, its validity. In the next part, two different interpretations of Scepticism are introduced, ethical and epistemological. Within the frame of those, I try to reason if and how epochē leads to ataraxia. Within the scope of presented interpretations, I conclude, that in the frame of epistemological interpretation, ataraxia follows epochē, not in terms of causality, but as a recollective sign. In accordance with ethical interpretation, I try to question whether the Sceptic is able to reach happiness and if, how it would be manifested in his everyday life. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
