      ab: The article aims to elaborate the meaning of "holiday" in the context of Jan Patočka's late philosophy. The article addresses two aspects of Patočka's work. First, it presents Patočka's concept of the sacrum and its relation to the question of authenticity and modernity. Second, it connects these considerations to Patočka's earlier texts on Greek tragedy. According to Patočka, tragedy stands at the historical threshold between subjection to myth and openness to problemacity, the non-givenness of the final ground of meaning. This is not only due to changes in mythical narration, but also to the fact that tragedy is a form of manifesting ritualistic behavior. This context allows the author to discern various types of holidays regarding its meaning and the meaning of ritual practices: mythical and tragic, religious and modern.
