Jan Patočka was of the contributing leaders of the Czech philosophical community during the twentieth century. After initial outline and insight into the biographical administrations in the career of this man, a closer analysis will be granted to one of Patočka’s innovative philosophical theories. He was responsible for treating and addressing two philosophical issues during the span of his academic and philosophical career. During the earlier days of Patočka’s career he was concerned with the phenomenological topic of the German word simply known as ‘Lebenswelt’, however his interests shifted towards the philosophical problem of history during the latter half of his career. It is the former of these two theories which will be addressed in this dissertation with greater detail. After Patočka’s biographical influences and philosophical dispositions are outlined it is useful to employ a sociological theory of world construction to comprehend his understanding of important philosophical themes. This sociological framework employs three technical terms which require sufficient explanation and qualification and only then can Patočka’s insight regarding the ‘Lebenswelt’ be tested for a possible synthesis.
