“…Clearly, avoiding explicitly discussing "spiritual motives" makes clear the autonomy of the two realms, Theology and reason. The relationship between the two produces a conflict that can already be found in Montaigne, and whose interpretation has yielded the expression, "skeptical fideism", an aporia that can be precisely defined thus: faith represents, for a human being, a far horizon without any mystical implication; that is, it marks a frontier that serves to make clear what humanity's sphere of action is (Cardoso, 2009). This appears to be Lopes da Veiga's case, since he establishes a net separation between the world of reason and the theological world.…”

ABSTRACT:The study of the process of construction of modern subjectivity offers an image of constant tensions between universality and particularity, which could be considered a manifestation of the conflictual nature of Modernity itself. As a way to solve the problems derived of the separation between universal and particular dimensions of this process -that has resulted in opposing interpretations regarding its confesional nature-a close study of the particular experience of the seventeenth-century thinker António Lopes da Veiga is presented here. This study is intended to provide some insight of the way in which similar intelectual concerns -of an international scale-over interiority and exteriority in epistemology, political thought, philology, theology and history, resulted in the constitution of a particular perspective regarding the individual.KEYWORDS: António Lopes de Veiga; Modernity; Subjectivity; Universality; Particularity; Interiority; Exteriority; Skepticism. RESUMEN: Cuando el infierno son los demás. Interioridad y escepticismo en António Lopes daVeiga.-Los estudios acerca del proceso de construcción de la subjetividad moderna ofrecen un panorama de tensión constante entre lo universal y lo particular que puede considerarse como un reflejo de la propia naturaleza contradictoria de la Modernidad. Con el fin de resolver los problemas derivados de una separación entre las dimensiones universales y particulares de dicho proceso -lo que ha resultado en interpretaciones opuestas acerca de su naturaleza confesional-se plantea aquí una aproximación a la experiencia particular del pensador del siglo XVII António Lopes da Veiga. Este estudio pretende profundizar en la forma en la que el conjunto de preocupaciones -de escala internacional-acerca de la interioridad y exterioridad en la epistemología, el pensamiento politico, la filología, la teología y la historia, desembocaron en la constitución de una perspectiva particular acerca del individuo.

My interest is in the relationship between the contemporary account of the epistemology of religious belief, known as quasi-fideism, and the sceptical fideism that has been so important, historically, in motivating fideistic ideas. I argue that we can profitably construe quasi-fideism along sceptical fideist lines, in that it is a proposal that is naturally understood as both arising within the context of a sceptical investigation and as exhibiting core features that it shares with Pyrrhonian scepticism. Moreover, I suggest that sceptical fideism, properly rendered, is inclined towards the kind of restricted fideism that is essential to quasifideism. Popkin's (1965;2003) magisterial work on the history of sceptical thought is One of the enduring insights of Richard
