Last Budapest lecture on Jan Patočka

In the last Danube Institute lecture on Jan Patočka, I argue that his philosophy of war & peace is not inspired by 20th-c. “War-ideology” (Kriegsideologie) but by a certain Platonism, a certain Christianity, & by what he calls “prayer for the enemy”. Tomorrow in Budapest, with a reply by Dimitry Kochenov of the CEU Democracy Institute.
