In this article I review my interpretation of the development of a skeptical life-view in Machado de Assis' fiction. This view is presented as originating and developing within the fictional framework of Machado's work, though some of its relations to ancient and modern skeptical philosophers are also remarked. I also react to some reviews of my work and briefly discuss some aspects of the relation between philosophy and literature in the specific case of Machado's work
