ABSTRACT This article discusses the Idea of Europe as it is developed within the phenomenological tradition by Edmund Husserl, Jacques Derrida and Jan Patočka. It shows how Derrida and Patočka try to preserve the main elements of European culture, mainly rationality and openness – in Patočka’s terms ‘the care for the soul’ – while at the same time avoiding Eurocentrism. According to Patočka, the care for the soul has been lost in modernity and needs to be restored in a revival of the idea of Europe in post-European times. In line with Derrida and Patočka, it is argued that in today’s post-European world a dissemination of the ethical idea of Europe is going on that leads beyond the name of ‘Europe,’ searching for new singular articulations, for which a renewal of the old notion of ‘care’ is a good candidate.

后欧洲时代的欧洲理念

摘要本文讨论了欧洲思想，它是埃德蒙·胡塞尔，雅克·德里达和扬·帕托奇卡在现象学传统中发展起来的。它显示了德里达和帕托奇卡如何努力维护欧洲文化的主要元素，主要是理性和开放-以帕托奇卡的术语“关怀灵魂”-同时避免了欧洲中心主义。根据帕托奇卡的说法，对灵魂的关怀已经失去了现代性，需要在后欧洲时代复兴欧洲观念时予以恢复。与德里达和帕托奇卡一致，有人认为，在当今的后欧洲世界中，对欧洲伦理观念的传播正在超越“欧洲”的名称，这是在寻找新的单数形式，为此对其进行了更新。古老的“护理”概念是不错的选择。
