摘要

This paper explores Edmund Husserl’s and Edith Stein’s analyses of anthropological and metaphysical questions. I begin by examining the meaning of the phenomenological method in Husserl and Stein, underscoring their novel approach to the question of knowledge of the human being, the world, and God. The essay is divided into four parts: two are dedicated to Husserl’s and Stein’s investigation of the human being, and the remaining two to ensuant metaphysical themes. Concerning the former, we discover a significant connection between the two thinkers; and in the case of the latter, we uncover a metaphysical approach to reality—even present in Husserl—as well as an original development of it in Stein’s analysis informed by medieval philosophy and theology.
