Synopsis: |
Covers most of Edith Steins philosophical life, from her early work with Husserl to her later encounters with medieval Christian thought, as well as a critical and analytical reading of major Steinian texts. Stein was an original thinker who challenged not only the direction in which Husserlian phenomenology was progressing but also sought to bring to philosophical light the relevance of certain key questions, including the meaning of what it is to be human, the relevance of metaphysics to science, and fundamental questions about the nature of God. Working to correct the perception that Stein is either an 'unfaithful and distorting' phenomenologist or a pious Catholic mystic, Calcagno brings to light important work that has been neglected by both secular and religious scholars. The essays are not merely expository, but discuss the philosophical questions raised by Steins work from a contemporary perspective, using Steins original German texts. |
