PonyPanda (npub17yq…d2qm) As funny as that story would've been, it's a no. Essays on Woman is a compilation of essays by one of Husserl's students, St. Edith Stein. She's an interesting figure because imo she's the godmother of a philosophical school, Phenomenological Thomism, synthesizing both the schools of Husserl and Scholasticism (though she isn't a *pure* Thomist even with regards to just her Scholasticism). I read them because I saw the book on my Amazon recommended, recognizing the author as an important philosopher that I hadn't read much of, and I got it because the title was kinda funny. It was a pretty profound explanation of woman that didn't fall into cliche tropes and didn't try to say that woman is just a reskinned man. It got me down two rabbitholes, writings about woman, and Edith's more abstract thought, expressed in works like Finite and Eternal Being.
