Item description from seller

Hardcover. Empathy (Einfuehlung)as a crucial concept for understanding ourselves, others, and communitieswas a central topic of interest in the first half of the twentieth century amongst philosophers and in the emerging sciences of psychology and sociology. Edith Steins dissertation and inaugural publication, On the Problem of Empathy, introduces her unique take on empathy, embodiment, phenomenology, and intersubjectivity. Her immersion in phenomenology and her intimate familiarity with the psychology and sociology of her day make it a challenge for contemporary readers to understand. This companion provides a guide to Steins first philosophical masterpiece. The opening essays, including a contribution from Ingrid Vendrell Ferran, indicate the most important influences on Steins thought circa 1917, the structure and method of her argument, the place of this work in her oeuvre, its historical significance, and its relevance for contemporary philosophical discussions. Timothy Burns then provides a clear and detailed summary of each section of Empathy, elucidating the argument that weaves through this classic of philosophical thought. This companion is both an introduction to and a guide through Edith Steins On the Problem of Empathy. The opening essays demonstrate the works historical significance and its relevance for contemporary philosophical discussions, while the subsequent chapters provide a clear and detailed summary of each section of Empathy. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
