The theme of the human being is central and constant in Edith Stein's phenomenologico-philosophical analysis. Her inquiry can be epitomized under a unitary title, namely that of a philosophical anthropology of a phenomenological type that seeks completion and support in the metaphysical traditions of Antiquity and the Middle Ages. On the other hand, witness to her interest in the human being, and this as regards both the singularity of man and his cultural productions, is already borne by the choice made in her university years to study such disciplines as psychology, history and literature. Delving into the interior of the human being and examining its exterior manifestations is the task she believes to be particularly urgent in the endeavor to understand man's singular, unique and unrepeatable nature as well as the significance of his expressions and products, which have an intersubjective value.
