“Hombre y mujer los creó Dios” Reflexiones desde el pensamiento de Edith Stein*

The paper analyzes the complex scenario of the issue of women. To do this, she outlines the feminine movement trajectory in the last few years, indicating a value of her own in its specificity. The study of Edith Stein’s reflections is relevant for understanding her biblical and anthropological foundations of the “differentiation” and “unity” between both sexes. In this regard, and supported by a phenomenology of religion, this study examines the peculiar way of being a man or a woman, along with the “common vocation” attributed to a human being. A complex reading of steiniana work and mainly her Conferences on Women makes it possible to clarify what this natural feminine and masculine vocation consists of and if they belong to an original order.
