La differenza femminile alla luce della fenomenologia. A partire da Hedwig Conrad-Martius

Abstract

The paper aims at presenting the theoretical pathway of one of Husserl's first students, Hedwig Conrad-Martius, and the influence she had first of all on Edith Stein, secondarily on Gerda Walther. The underlying research question could be summarized as follows: is it possible to trace a specific female perspective on phenomenology? The essay shows how the three phenomenologists considered are united by the interest, of great importance for pedagogy, for the theme of personhood and the constant attempt to study the human soul, in its relationship with the lived body but above all with the attention always devoted to a specific consideration of the spiritual dimension.
