Summary
Knjiga "Duhovi Europe", koja je dobila niz europskih nagrada od kojih je najpoznatija Charles Veillon (2005.), želi osvijetliti filozofsku poruku Srednje Europe iz razdoblja prije pada Berlinskog zida.
Through a meticulous analysis of the works and activities of the leading dissidents of that time, Jan Patočka, Czslaw Milosz, Istvan Bibo, Karol Kosik, Thomas Venclova, Zbigniew Bauman and others, she shows the extent to which dissidence is inextricably linked with the culture and idea of Europe, that is, with critical thinking about modern civilization and the alienation of the individual in the face of the hypertrophy of power.
Alexandra Laignel Lavastine conveys her faith in Europe despite all the criticism, a Europe that for her represents a miraculous unity in heterogeneity, if we have the strength to restore it.
