SUMMARY:

This dissertation investigates how comparisons between Greek Pyrrhonism and the Buddhist Mādhyamaka tradition, developed by authors of the so-called Orientalist interpretation, can elucidate obscure points of Pyrrhonian philosophy, particularly regarding its therapeutic practice. The central problem examines to what extent these comparative approaches offer new interpretative keys to questions such as the nature of the epochê, the scope of ataraxia, and the apparent contradiction between suspension of judgment and practical engagement. The study critically evaluates the heuristic potential of these comparative studies, identifying both their contributions and their limits for the understanding of Pyrrhonism.
