Jan Patočka: a Bystander Turned Dissident
Original language description
Jan Patočka (1907-1977) was a great Czech philosopher and scholar who became a dissent hero and martyr in 1977 as the representative of the dissent group Charta 77. In this chapter, I provide the necessary background information about Patočka, about thesituation of philosophy and classics in Czechoslovakia of the 1940's to 1970's, and about the beginning and the early months of Charta 77. Then, I discuss how and why Patočka, a life-long bystander with regard to political struggle, chose to accept the prominent position in a dissent group which lead to his death in March 1977.
