CORREA MOTTA, Alfonso. The immorality of the Pyrrhonists. Estud.filos [online]. 2019, n.60, pp.63-83. ISSN 0121-3628. https://doi.org/10.17533/10.17533/udea.ef.n60a04.
In this paper I revisit Aristocles’ formulation of the objection of immorality addressed to the Pyrrhonists (apud Eusebio Praep. Ev. 14.18.18-19), as well as a possible skeptical answer transmitted by the same source (14.18.20). Concerning the objection, I will try to show that it is an ethical and not a practical charge, which should not therefore be confused with the objection of apraxia. Concerning the answer, I will argue that it is necessarily a deflationary solution, which leaves part of the accusation intact, simply because the Pyrrhonist cannot and should not admit the terms in which it has been raised.
