12Is Edith Stein’s Finite and Eternal Being a Kind of “Phenomenological Metaphysics”?Symposium: Canadian Journal of Continental Philosophy/Revue canadienne de philosophie continentale 25 (2): 48-66. 2021.One striking feature of Finite and Eternal Being is Edith Stein’s exceedingly rare use of the term “metaphysics.” She uses the term “formal ontology” numerous times, but the term “metaphysics” only appears a handful of times in the body of the text, and even those references are themselves a bit surprising. This could be explained in several ways, some of which may be quite innocent and have nothing to do with whether she understands her project as metaphysical. In the following, however, I woul…Read more

Readers will discover why Aristotle was not a feminist and how he might have become one, through an investigation of Aristotle and Aristotelian tradition. The author shows how Aristotle’s metaphysics can be used to articulate a particularly subtle and theoretically powerful understanding of gender that may offer a highly useful tool for distinctively …Read more

43Edith Stein and Thomas Aquinas on Being and EssenceAmerican Catholic Philosophical Quarterly 82 (1): 87-103. 2008.In her later philosophical writings, Stein works to synthesize the medieval scholastic tradition and contemporary phenomenology. Stein draws heavily fromThomas Aquinas’s work so that the prevalence of positive references to Thomas have led many to read Stein as a Thomist. On critical questions regarding beingand essence, however, Stein is not a Thomist. In addition to mental and actual being, she also affirms essential being, which is properly the being of intelligibilitiesas well as potencies. …Read more

An Issue in Edith Stein's Philosophy of the Person: The Relation of Individual and Universal Form in "Endliches Und Ewiges Sein"Dissertation, Fordham University. 2001.The primary goals of my dissertation are, first, to present Stein's metaphysical claims, particularly her understanding of being and essence; secondly, to situate Stein's claims regarding individual forms within her more general metaphysical framework, looking particularly at the way in which individual forms function as principles of individual uniqueness; and, finally, to evaluate her use of individual forms. ;The first chapter of the dissertation presents Stein's claims regarding individual f…Read more

34Edith Stein’s Understanding of WomanInternational Philosophical Quarterly 46 (2): 171-190. 2006.This essay looks at Edith Stein’s descriptions of the fundamental equality, yet distinct differences between women and men, and attempts to make clear the ontology underlying her claims. Stein’s position—although drawing from the general Aristotelian-Thomistic position—differs from Thomas Aquinas’s, and she understands gender as tied significantly to our form or soul. The particular way in which gender is “written into” our soul, however, differs from the way in which both our humanity and indiv…Read more
