NUNES, Etelvina Pires Lopes. Temporal Analogy and Analogy of the Person in Edith Stein: Beyond Phenomenology and Ontology. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2022, n.63, pp.333-358. Epub 15-Ago-2022. ISSN 0188-6649. https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v63i0.1971.
This paper describes Stein’s process for establishing the relationship between finite and temporal beings and infinite and eternal beings. Although she contextualized her research in the fields of phenomenology and ontology, Stein surpasses these domains. Following Aquinas, Stein uses the analogy to trace the ascension towards the sense of Being. However, this process ends up being closest to the position of St. Augustine. In fact, the author first draws up a temporal analogy and then a personal analogy starting from two pieces of evidence: the certainty of “I am”, from Augustine, Descartes, and Husserl, and the divine “I am”, according to the name that God reveals of himself: “I am who I am” (Ex 3.14). Through personal analogy, the author goes beyond phenomenology and ontology, while the category “person” includes both being and an attributed fullness.
