More about the book

Exploring Jan Patočka's view on the spiritual foundations of Europe, this book delves into the evolution of the concept of the care of the soul, tracing its roots to Socrates and Plato. The author argues that Patočka's philosophical unity revolves around understanding truthful human existence, highlighting the decline of this spiritual style during the Renaissance and Enlightenment. The final chapter addresses Patočka's insights on the implications of modern science and technology, balancing potential dangers with positive opportunities.
