Spanning his entire career, this selection of texts by influential philosopher Jan Patocka illustrates his thoughts on the appropriate manner of being and engagement in the world. The writings assembled in Living in Problematicity examine the role of the philosopher in the world, how the world constrains us through ideology, and how freedom is possible through the recognition of our human condition in the problems of the world. These views outline Patocka's political philosophy and how his later engagement in the political sphere with the human rights initiative Charter 77 corresponds with the ideas he maintained throughout his life. This short and engaging book-published in conjunction with the prestigious philosophy press OIKOYMENH-is an ideal English-language introduction to the most significant Czech philosopher in recent history.
