| الوصف: | This article proposes to investigate Jan Patočka’s idea of ‘post-Europe’, in the context of his understanding of European contemporary history. Therefore, I first stress how important it is for Patočka to conceive a ‘post-European perspective’, i.e. a peculiar insight into historical problems and conflicts that would allow humanity to find a possible path out of the condition that characterises the twentieth century. Second, I focus on the existential figure that, according to Patočka, is capable of engendering this perspective, and whose fundamental traits are equality, detachment, openness, and courage. Thus, I consider Husserl’s idea of Europe, Arendt’s concept of the political, and Bergson’s concept of the open soul as fundamental references for Patočka’s reconstruction. I conclude by showing how Patočka’s ethical stance on Europe and post-Europe can also be meaningful in light of the current European economic and political crisis. |
