Die Präsenz des Duns Scotus im Denken Edith Steins Philosophische Schriften Bd106 - Francesco Alfieri Kartoniert (TB)

»The Presence of Duns Scotus in the Thought of Edith Stein. The Question of Individuality« In this volume the author analyses the works of the phenomenologist Edith Stein in order to detect which Scotist sources she used in particular in reference to a crucial anthropological question: the 'principium individuationis'. The use of Scotist sources is a very common element among Husserl's disciples. Through extensive research in the Archives and by analysing the works of the members of the Phenomenological Circle of Göttingen Freiburg and Munich the author was able to reconstruct the Scotist a nd pseudoscotist sources. A decisive element emerges from this reconstruction: Stein's contact with Scotist sources precedes her contribution to the 'Phänomenologie und die Philosophie des Hl. Thomas von Aquino' (Husserl's 'Jahrbuch' of 1929). The analysis of the structure of the human person is carried out by the author taking into consideration how Stein's approach accomplished an expansion of the Husserlian phenomenology with medieval philosophy.
