This volume contains for the first time in English, Jan Patocka's seminal essay "The Phenomenology of Afterlife", as well as contributions surrounding and analyzing this text. In his essay, Patocka reflects on our relation to the dead and on how the departure of a loved one affects our continued existence. The premise of Patocka's investigation is that our existence always takes place by and through an originary and reciprocal "being for others".

The contributors in the volume extend the field of inquiry into the wider phenomenological and post-phenomenological discussion of death by being cognizant of how works of literature can broaden our understanding of the care of death, grief, forgiveness and non-reciprocal love. Also included are reflections on issues of philosophical anthropology, community, collective memory, and the ecstatic nature of life - issues that can all be related back to Patocka's initial reflections, but which nonetheless radiate intoa myriad of directions. This volume appeals to students and researchers in the field.
