The essay explores Patočka’s discussion of the question of meaning, connected with the criticism of Kant’s theory of postulates of pure practical reason, as developed in Patočka’s last finished paper “Around Masaryk’s Philosophy of Religion”. The essence of this criticism is expressed by the words “ontic retribution”, referring to two problems: Kant’s notion of postulates as the final purpose remains on merely ontical level, not being able to reach the ontological sphere that, for Patočka inspired by early Heidegger, stands out for the thinking able to recognize the basic difference between beings and being as such. Second, Kant’s view of postulates of practical reason is strictly bound to the moral view of the world with the give-and-take, “accountancy” reciprocity. Patočka suggests ontological, non-moral and yet somehow “absolute” and unbreakable notion of meaning as a “secret presence of immensurable richness”. Sharpness of Patočka’s arguments against Kant can be dulled by a more careful reading of postulates as non-objectified ideas, as well as by advocating the aspect of reciprocity with reference to the necessity of dialogical autonomy.
