摘要

在其重要的原创著作《了解与检查》中，圭多·梅尔基奥就如何应对怀疑主义提出了建议。我认为，他的分析指出了对怀疑主义的一种可能的美德理论答案，我称之为约束解决方案，即激活你的自信，抑制你的好奇心!它使人产生了有限的反思性好奇心的理想:当涉及到知识时，我们应该限制我们的二阶、反思性好奇心，并满足于对普通日常信仰的某种摩尔式信任。我们可以保持我们普通的，一阶的警惕和调查的兴趣(好奇心)，而不会陷入怀疑的过度谨慎，这基本上是一种反思的，二阶的恶性态度。

Curiosity, Checking, and Knowing: a Virtue-Theoretical Perspective

Abstract

In his important and original book, Knowing and Checking, Guido Melchior provides advice on how to tackle skepticism. I argue that his analysis points to a possible virtue-theoretic answer to skepticism, which I call the restraint solution, i.e., activate your self-trust and restrain your inquisitiveness! It leads one to the ideal of bounded reflective curiosity: when it comes to knowledge, we should restrain our second-order, reflective curiosity and stay content with the somewhat Moorean trust in ordinary everyday beliefs. We can preserve our ordinary, first-order vigilance and investigative interest (curiosity) without falling into skeptical over-caution which is basically a reflective, second-order vicious attitude.
