The Quality of the Feminine Starting with Edith Stein

Perspectives for the constitution of a personal community

Abstract

his work highlights the specificity of the feminine in humanity from the perspective of Edith Stein. Through the idea of personal vocation, we underline personal individual and its specific characters of uniqueness, showing how, in both man and woman, what is truly peculiar is the personal core and the feminine that can express itself in each core. The emphasis on the feminine should therefore be conceived, in our view, as a further quality that each person possesses in personal quantities and in personal ways, but still constitutive of each individual.To this goal, will show and describe the characteristics, peculiarities and emerging possibilities of this quality in Steinian anthropology.
