Edith Stein and Max Scheler in Dialogue: Edith Stein Studies
Editat de Eric Mohr, Timothy A. Burns, Travis Lacyen Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 apr 2026
This volume brings together philosophers and theologians to explore the convergences and divergences in Stein and Scheler's respective work. Both thinkers 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. 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."

Recenzii
Finally, a comprehensive anthology of essays comparing and contrasting Edith Stein and Max Scheler by a collection of world-class Stein and Scheler scholars! This is a most welcome volume on one of the most fascinating constellations of phenomenological stars in history, when Edmund Husserl and Scheler gathered about them in Göttingen a cluster of some of the brightest young rising philosophy students in Europe, including Stein and Dietrich von Hildebrand, whom Scheler (a Catholic of controverted standing and Jewish-Lutheran parentage) influenced to convert to Catholicism. Stein's relationships to Husserl and Scheler and their sometime strained relationships and their respective intellectual and spiritual emphases are brilliantly developed in this volume.
This outstanding volume brings together leading scholars to unpack the rich and vibrant engagement between the thought of Edith Stein and Max Scheler. Themes of personhood, sociality, value, phenomenological essences, religion, and political life are expertly investigated, which not only unpack key, shared concepts at work in both philosophers, but also create new philosophical possibilities through the dialogue undertaken in this book. This work is a unique, insightful, and original resource for understanding the ideas of and the relationship between the two phenomenologists.
This book is a milestone in Schelerian as well as Steinian studies. Its greatest strength lies in the constant reciprocal illumination of the work and evolution of each of the two thinkers by the other's, refining and renewing our understanding of their contributions to a wide range of themes-knowledge, the human being, the spirit, the body, moral responsibility, love, culture, politics, religion-some of which are of paramount relevance today, far beyond the sole audience of philosophers. Written in a clear and didactic style, the book concludes with the translation of an original text by Edith Stein, a fascinating firsthand account of the impact and influence of the phenomenological movement in its initiating generation.
This groundbreaking collection brings together renowned international scholars to explore the profound philosophical dialogue between two giants of 20th-century thought, Edith Stein and Max Scheler. Through rigorous interdisciplinary analysis, these essays illuminate how both thinkers grappled with the most urgent questions of human existence: What does it mean to be a person? How do we know ourselves and others? What role does the body play in our social and spiritual lives?
From debates over empathy and individuality to explorations of embodiment, education, and faith, this volume demonstrates the enduring relevance of phenomenological inquiry to contemporary life. Stein and Scheler emerge not as remote historical figures but as vital interlocutors whose insights speak directly to current discussions in philosophy, cognitive science, political theory, and theology.
Featuring the first English translation of Stein's 1932 essay on phenomenology's worldview significance, this collection offers to both scholars and engaged readers a masterful synthesis of two philosophers whose work illuminates the depths of human experience and the possibilities of genuine understanding.
