Fenomenologicko- personalistická filozofia výchovy Edity Steinovej a jej úvahy o výchove ženy
The Phenomenological-Personalist Philosophy of Education by Edith Stein and Her Thoughts on the Education of Women

Summary/Abstract: The demand for the work of Edith Stein has been growing, but it includes mainly the interpretation of her philosophical and religious thoughts, with less attention being paid to her opinions on the education of man. At the same time, it turns out that also in this field the scholar expressed many valuable ideas related to pedagogical theory and practice. The history of the philosophical thinking of the 20th century has been enriched by Edith Stein’s phenomenological-personality research into issues related to man and his existence. A special feature of her approach to these topics is that she combines the philosophical method of phenomenology with the Christian teachings and philosophy of Thomism. This fact had a direct impact on the new perspectives she adopted in the philosophy of education. The first part of the article deals with the philosophical and anthropological background and the education of man in Stein’s work. The second part, in turn, focuses on the specific expression of her thoughts on the individual determination of the role and the status of woman. With these points of departure in mind, we can arrive at further aims and tasks of education.
