Description

Edith Stein (1891-1942) and Max Scheler (1874-1928) have enough shared intellectual debts and interests that their respective oeuvres demand to be placed in conversation. Both were early practitioners of the phenomenological method, drew from and reflected on theological resources in their philosophical explorations, and maintained a lifelong interest in the human person. This volume, the first of its kind, brings together philosophers and theologians to explore the convergences and divergences in their thought. It examines key themes such as the human person, spirit (Geist), education (Bildung), and social ontology, demonstrating their historical importance and contemporary relevance. The authors argue that reading these philosophers together is essential for understanding their historical significance and for illuminating contemporary concerns both within and beyond academia. The volume also features the first English translation of Edith Stein's seminal essay, “The Meaning of Phenomenology as Worldview.”
