Abstract

Two fundamental questions of Pyrrhonism will be addressed, the first is of a historical nature: would such Neopyrronism be congruent with the spirit and the letter of the original Pyrrhonism? In this regard, the answer could not be more affirmative. Distinguishing itself from both the so-called “Urban” reading and the “Rustic” reading, there is no way to deny originality to the Neopyrronic reading. Now, since Neopyrronism assumes itself as its own philosophical project, it faces a second pressing question: would it sustain itself on its own legs? The attempt to present a negative answer in the article finds inspiration in three main sources: Kant, Wittgenstein and Kripke / Putnam.
