The PhD student will work on the contribution of the most important figure of this tradition, the German philosopher Odo Marquard. The thesis will focus on Marquard’s continuation of the tradition of Pyrrhic skepticism and its further development when applied to modern conditions, on the notion of a philosophy of history, and on the concept of ethics (morality) and anthropology (habitualism, anthropology, homo compensator). On this basis, he attempts to confront his own attitudes to the questions posed by modern neo-Pyrrhonist skepticism: what shapes us; what we can influence; how we understand the political rules that govern society; whether we have the possibility of interpreting them in yet another way; how we move in constant conflict with multiplicity and unity, etc.
