International Journal for the Study of Skepticism, 2012 This paper applies speech-act theory to craft a new response to Pyrrhonian skepticism and diagnose its appeal.

In this paper, I argue that existing accounts of the Modes face significant objections, and I defend an alternative account that better ...

Understanding Wittgenstein's positive philosophy through language‐games: Giving philosophy peace
Philosophical Investigations, Volume 46, Issue 3, Page 376-394, July 2023., 2023 Abstract A significant discrepancy in Wittgenstein's studies is whether Philosophical Investigations contains any trace of positive philosophy, notwithstanding the author's apparent anti‐theoretic position. This study argues that the so‐called ‘Chapter on philosophy’ in the Investigations §§89–133 contains negative and positive vocabulary and the use ...
