El marco fenomenológico y el realismo metafísico en el pensamiento de Edith Stein

Abstract

This paper analyses Edith Stein’s thought in order to find out, particularly in the investigation the philosopher did about Thomas Aquinas, the metaphysical assumptions hidden in the phenomeno-logy. It tries to clarify in which way the steinian “realism of essence”, based on a certain logical atomism, gives up the idealistic postulates of Husserl’s philosophy.
