I begin with the following assumption: the pyrrhonian skeptic’s aim is ataraxia, which can be achieved by suspending judgment —that is, by suspending all beliefs about the world. I analyze different definitions of belief and I judge which one is the most compatible with Sextus Empiricus’s view; all this to asses if the skeptic can suspend the judgment of all its beliefs or just a few of them. Finally, I’ll argue that Sextus wouldn’t commit to a narrow definition of «belief»; if we want to ascribe him beliefs, we should choose a wider sense of belief that depends on the multiple uses of the term and not just a narrow definition.Downloads
