Many interested reader will have put aside a work by Edith Stein
due to its seeming inaccessibility, with the awareness that there
was something important there for a future occasion. This
collection of essays attempts to provide an idea of what this
important something might be and give a key to the reading of
Stein's various works. It is divided into two parts reflecting
Stein's development. The first part, "Phenomenology", deals with
those features of Stein's work that set it apart from that of other
phenomenologists, notably Husserl. The second part is entitled
"Metaphysics", although Stein the phenomenologist would, like
Husserl, initially have shied away from this designation. However,
as Stein gradually understood the importance of the Christian faith
for completing the phenomenological project of founding the
sciences, and accepted it as indispensable for a philosophical view
of the whole, her "attempt at an ascent to the meaning of being"
can legitimately be called metaphysics, even as it also constitutes
a fundamental criticism of Aristotle and Aquinas.
