Dans ce mémoire nous cherchons à révéler sa conception de l'idée de l'Europe de Jan Patočka est sa vision du monde "posteuropéen". Selon Patočka, l'Europe est fondée sur l'idée de la "liberté vide" qui se portait garant de sa consistance dans les changements historiques, mais qui a été tué par la domination de la pensée scientifique. Il commence en recherchant l'origine de l'idée de l'Europe dans la pensée des philosophes grecs et dans ses deux alternatives de concevoir l'âme et le monde (Socrate et Platon d'un côté et Démocrite de l'autre). Ensuite il continue en caractérisant l'approche scientifique de manière critique, ce qui aboutit à l'exploration du monde "posteuropéen". Á la fin il esquisse un avenir que l'Europe peut subir dans un tel monde.
In this thesis we attempt to reveal Patočka's conception of the idea of Europe and his vision of the Post-European world. According to Patočka, Europe is based on the idea of the "empty freedom", which had sustained it through all the historical changes, and which was killed by the dominance of the scientific thought. We will proceed through the research of the origin of the idea of Europe in the thought of the ancient Greeks and of their two ways of conceiving the soul and the world (Socrates' and Plato's on the one hand and Democritus' on the other), then through the characterisation and critique of the scientific approach and finally we will examine the "Post-European" world, and outline the future of Europe in it.
