The Czech philosopher Jan Patocka (1907-1977), who studied with
Husserl and Heidegger, is widely recognized as the most influential
thinker to come from postwar Eastern Europe. Refusing to join the
Communist party after World War II, he was banned from academia and
publication for the rest of his life, except for a brief time
following the liberalizations of the Prague spring of 1968. Joining
Vaclav Havel and Jiri Hajek as a spokesman for the Chart 77
human-rights declaration of 1977, Patocka was harassed by
authorities, arrested, and finally died of a heart attack during
prolonged interrogation.
