Abstract

abstract:By means of the Ten Modes, Pyrrhonian skeptics appeal to conflicting appearances to bring about suspension of judgment. However, precisely how the skeptic might do so in a nondogmatic manner is not entirely clear. In this paper, I argue that existing accounts of the Modes face significant objections, and I defend an alternative account that better explains the logical structure, rational nature, and effectiveness of the Modes. In particular, I clarify how the Modes appeal to concerns about epistemic impartiality and circularity, the nature of the skeptic's nondoxastic attitude(s), and how the skeptic can employ the Modes nondogmatically.
矛盾的表象、审判的中止和没有承诺的皮尔逊怀疑主义
皮罗派怀疑论者借助于十模论,诉诸矛盾的表象,使判断暂停。然而,怀疑论者究竟如何以一种非教条的方式做到这一点,还不完全清楚。在本文中,我认为现有的模态解释面临着重大的反对,我为一个更好地解释模态的逻辑结构、理性本质和有效性的替代解释辩护。特别是,我澄清了这些模式是如何引起人们对认知公正性和循环性的关注的,怀疑论者非对立态度的本质,以及怀疑论者如何非教条地使用这些模式。
