Dalla luce all’oscurità. L’itinerario filosofico di Edith Stein dalla fenomenologia alla Scientia Crucis

Edith Stein ’ s philosophy had an evolution dependent on her biographical experi- ence. At the beginning, as e Problem of Empathyrelies, the use of Husserlian phenom- enology is crucial in defining the essence of intersubjective relationships. en, from what can be seen in her works, including the Science of the Cross, a shift occurs that does not betray the beginning, but recovers an even more original dimension of presence: the union with otherness through the union-identification with God-Totality by crossing the Night, metaphor of the negative.
