Scepticism about Scepticism [PDF]

Nietzsche's Conception of Skepticism as Intellectual Virtue and Vice

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1466-1485, December 2025.
Abstract Recent approaches are unable to make full sense of Nietzsche's distinction between weak and strong skepticism (BGE 208–209; A54). In this paper, I propose an alternative interpretation. My suggestion is that this distinction is best understood in the context of his virtue epistemology.

open access: yes, 2016
Our contention is that to solve the Gettier Problem, a notion of infallible knowledge involving the substantial truth theory is necessary. We assume that acts of sense experience have propositional content, and that atomic empirical propositions need the

Daring to doubt! Shaftesbury, doubt, and polite conversation

open access: yesThe Southern Journal of Philosophy, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 192-210, June 2025.
