"Patocka's contribution to philosophy and, in particular, to post-Heideggerian thought has shaped the European debate about the future of philosophy and phenomenologyPlato and Europe is one of the finest introductions to phenomenology. Its major thesis, however, is an extremely powerful and fascinating argument concerning the specificity and heritage of European thought: that European thought and civilization rests on the Platonic conception of the 'tendance of the soul'."—Rodolphe Gasche, State University of New York, Buffalo
