O presente artigo se debruça sobre os limites do que é possível dizer sobre a identidade e os predicados de Deus em linguagem humana. Afirma a contribuição do discurso analógico sobre Deus, tomando como exemplo a analogia entis de Tomás de Aquino, para expressar certa proporcionalidade do Criador com suas criaturas. Ao mesmo tempo apresenta alguns de seus limites para dizer sobre a identidade mais profunda de Deus, inefável em si mesmo, mas revelado de modo todo próprio a partir da linguagem da teologia da cruz, marcada pela contemplação e pelo silêncio que comunica. Contribuirá nesse percurso a análise de textos de síntese sobre a analogia entis e argumentações advindas de dois autores vinculados à teologia da cruz: Moltmann e Edith Stein. Afirmamos que o dado revelado por Deus e captado a partir da racionalidade humana precisa ser conjugado com o dado revelado na cruz para tocar a identidade de Deus. Na primeira parte discorre sobre a teologia como discurso sobre Deus e volta-se para a analogia entis, passando em seguida a versar sobre a linguagem da teologia da cruz. Por fim, realiza-se uma síntese estabelecendo alguns dos limites da própria linguagem, da teologia ocidental clássica e a complementariedade da teologia da cruz.

Mi intervención intenta ser una reflexión sobre algunos temas abordados por el Dr. González Di Pierro en su texto titulado "Dos fenomenólogas piensan la república: María Zambrano y Edith Stein", y la formulación de algunas preguntas que, espero, puedan introducirnos a una discusión posterior. Más que remitirme a las coincidencias que hay entre una autora y otra, tal como lo hace Eduardo González al final de su sugerente trabajo, me gustaría considerar las posibles divergencias en torno a la naturaleza social del ser humano. Tal cuestión qeu está a la base del pensamiento político tanto de Stein como de Zambrano , puede analizarse a partir de las consideraciones que ambas autores realizan en torno a la naturaleza de la acción humana.

O artigo discute uma aproximação entre dois autores, Edith Stein da fenomenologia e Winnicott da psicanálise, para refletir a ética da clínica psicológica. Colocam-se em diálogo dois conceitos, o de “preocupação materna primária” de Winnicott e o de “empatia” na fenomenologia de Edith Stein. Nota-se que os conceitos discutidos se referem a algo que existe no ser humano que é anterior a percepção e a todos os processos cognitivos e cognoscitivos, algo que é da ordem do ontológico. Tal aproximação mostra que ambos os autores entendem que há um aspecto que é fundamentalmente humano na constituição do sujeito, e esse possibilita a intersubjetividade. Nas implicações para a clínica, acreditamos que o que é fundamentalmente humano possibilitando a intersubjetividade se funda no reconhecimento da alteridade e no cuidado ético do ser humano em relação ao outro.

Whereas much theology of religions regards ‘the other’ as a problem to be solved, this book begins with a Church called to witness to its faith in a multicultural world by practising a generous yet risky hospitality. A theology of dialogue takes its rise from the Christian experience of being-in-dialogue. Taking its rise from the biblical narrative of encounter, call, and response, such a theology cannot be fully understood without reference to the matrix of faith that Christians share in complex ways with the Jewish people. The contemporary experience of the Shoah, the dominating religious event of the twentieth century, has complexified that relationship and left an indelible mark on the religious sensibility of both Jews and Christians. Engaging with a range of thinkers, from Heschel, Levinas, and Edith Stein who were all deeply affected by the Shoah, to Metz, Panikkar, and Rowan Williams, who are always pressing the limits of what can and cannot be said with integrity about the self-revealing Word of God, this book shows how Judaism is a necessary, if not sufficient, source of Christian self-understanding. What is commended by this foundational engagement is a hope-filled ‘waiting on grace’ made possible by virtues of empathy and patience. A theology of dialogue focuses not on metaphysical abstractions but on biblical forms of thought about God’s presence to human beings which Christians share with Jews and, under the continuing guidance of the Spirit of Christ, learn to adapt to a whole range of contested cultural and political contexts.

AbstractThis paper discusses the thesis defended by Edith Stein that certain acts can be attributed to the State. According to Stein, the State is a social structure characterized by sovereignty. As such, it is responsible for the production, interpretation, and application of law. These tasks require the performance of acts, most of which are what Stein calls “social acts” like enactments and orders. For Stein, the acts in question are made by the organs of the State, but in the name of the State, and are thus attributed to the State via a relation of representation. In the first section, the paper presents Stein’s thesis that the sovereignty of the State entails a series of legal prerogatives, which in turn result in various social acts being ascribed to the State through its representatives. In the second section, the paper critically discusses Stein’s views, notably her theory of representation, and her account of the nature of the State, while emphasizing its most interesting aspects, namely, its fine-grained analyses of the various acts that are attributed to the State.

AbstractThe paper presents a semiotic interpretation of the phenomenological debate on the notion of person, focusing in particular on Edmund Husserl, Max Scheler, and Edith Stein. The semiotic interpretation lets us identify the categories that orient the debate: collective/individual and subject/object. As we will see, the phenomenological analysis of the relation between person and social units such as the community, the association, and the mass shows similarities to contemporary socio-semiotic models. The difference between community, association, and mass provides an explanation for the establishment of legal systems. The notion of person we inherit from phenomenology can also be useful in facing juridical problems raised by the use of non-human decision-makers such as machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence applications.

A central question facing the reader of the Paradiso terrestre (Pg 28–33) concerns the selfhood of the protagonist, the character Dante. While the state of Dante’s soul was critical to the poem’s beginning in the dark wood, and remained implicit through the intervening cantos, it is only in the Paradiso terrestre that it becomes the poem’s central focus. This question is explored in cognitive and theological terms in a sequential reading of the six cantos that elucidates the learning process occurring in the character before and after his confession in Pg 31: in his encounter with Matelda, his sensory and perceptual experience of the procession, his dialogues with Beatrice, and his witnessing of her divine beauty as the analogia entis reflecting the beauty of God. The analysis acknowledges the changes in Dante’s style in this interval, which serves as a fulcrum of the entire Commedia, a spatio-temporal threshold in which the transition of one soul, from confession to redemption to instruction on the divine word, is linked to the destiny of humankind and the prospect of universal salvation. Throughout this process of becoming, the character’s cognitive limitations are exposed, not simply as flaws but as signs of his intrinsic humanity.

AbstractThis work critically examines the moral theology of Karol Wojtyla/John Paul II. In his writings as Wojtyla, and later as John Paul II, the theme of human dignity served as the starting point for his moral theology. This article first describes his conception of human dignity as influenced by Thomist and by phenomenological sources. The Thomist philosophy of being provided Wojtyla with an optimistic view of the epistemic and moral capacity of human persons. Wojtyla argued that because of the analogia entis, humans gain epistemic access to the normative order of God as well as the moral capacity to live in accordance with the law of God. Built upon the foundation of his Thomist assumptions, Wojtyla's phenomenological research enriched his insight into human dignity by arguing in favour of the formative nature of human action. He argued that human dignity rested also in this dynamism of personhood: the capacity not only to live in accordance with the normative order but to form oneself as virtuous by partaking in virtuous acts or to form one's community in solidarity through acts of participation and self-giving. After presenting his moral theology, this article then engages critically with his assumptions from a Protestant perspective. I argue that, while human dignity provides a powerful and beneficial starting point for ethics, his Thomist ontology of being/substance and the optimistic terms in which he interprets human dignity ultimately undermine his social programme. I propose that an ontology of relation provides a better starting point for interpreting human dignity and for appealing for acts of solidarity in the social realm.

Cet article tente de montrer la parenté intellectuelle entre Edith Stein et Erich Przywara. Les deux montrent en effet que ni une philosophie de l’être ni une philosophie de la connaissance ne peuvent s’accomplir absolument. Si Przywara élabore une synthèse métaphysique complexe en se basant sur une analyse de l’histoire de la philosophie, Stein compte perfectionner la phénoménologie en lui montrant le chemin de l’être.
