title = "Faith, Familiarity and Conversion: A Jewish Perspective on Edith Stein",
abstract = "This paper confronts Edith Stein's Christian idea of faith with the Jewish one of Yeshayahu Leibowitz. The aspect of conversion as the starting point for understanding Stein's idea of faith is rejected in favor of a careful phenomenological reading of the relevant texts of both thinkers. The discussion starts with uncovering their common starting point which anchors religious faith in one's volitional decision, continues with a manifestation of the essential differences between their understandings of the religious experience, and culminates with a demonstration of the commonality of the aspect of radicalism.",
