En annan Edith

En annan Edith

Nina Ulmaja

Norstedts
2023
sidottu
Många har skrivit om poeten Edith Södergran. Otaliga har tolkat hennes dikter, läst hennes brev och dragit slutsatser om hennes liv. Att hon var en ambitiös fotograf är inte lika omskrivet, och hennes bilder har inte fått den uppmärksamhet de förtjänar. Fotografier från alpresor och hembygd, på kvinnor, katter och självporträtt. Bilder som ger en annan – sannare? – levnadsteckning än de biografier som skrivits.Nina Ulmaja ville veta mer om fotografen Edith och började skriva brev till henne. Brev som till en början kretsar kring fotografi, men som alltmer kom att handla om deras gemensamma bakgrund: om hemlandet Finland, om ryssrädsla, krigsminnen, klassresor och nedtystade familjehistorier.En annan Edith är en insiktsfull och nyfiken berättelse om identitet, historia, mod och självständighet. Det är också en vacker bok med 180 av Ediths egna fotografier. Brevberättelsen ger en ny bild av en ung kvinna med både penna och kamera som levde för hundra år sedan, i en tid som på många sätt liknar vår.

Den stora upplevelsen : om Edith Steins omvändelse till katolicismen

Den stora upplevelsen : om Edith Steins omvändelse till katolicismen

Karl Eidem

Veritas Förlag
2017
nidottu
I samband med en omskakande frälsningsupplevelse konverterade judinnan Edith Stein till den katolska kyrkan 1921. Efter att under många år ha sökt sanningen, framför allt inom den akademiska psykologin och filosofin, resulterade en natts läsande av kyrkoläraren Teresa av Avilas texter i Steins religiösa omvändelse. Trots att hon själv förblev förtegen om sin frälsning så är ’den stora upplevelsen’ i hennes liv väl känd och beskriven i den katolska traditionen. Den stora upplevelsen är ett försök att sätta in händelsen i dess historiska kontext för att förstå den bättre. Även om dess innersta kärna – mötet mellan Gud och människa – förblir ett mysterium så kan vi följa det en bit på vägen. Det envisa sanningssökandet, de personliga besvikelserna och de oväntade mötena och insikterna formade och förberedde Edith Stein för den händelse som radikalt förändrade hennes liv. På grund av sitt judiska ursprung fördes karmelitsystern Edith Stein tillsammans med sin syster Rosa till Auschwitz i augusti 1942, där de troligen avrättades omedelbart efter ankomsten. År 1987 saligförklarades hon av påve Johannes Paulus II i Köln och 1998 helgonförklarades hon. Hon firas den 9 augusti. Ur biskop Anders förord: När påven, den helige Johannes Paulus II, gjorde Edith Stein till ett av Europas skyddshelgon var det ett profetiskt och symboliskt viktigt tecken. Ändå är denna kvinna förvånansvärt lite känd och studerad i vårt land, fastän hennes person och hennes budskap har mycket att ge människor i vår tid och miljö. Därför är det mycket glädjande att vi nu får en bok som denna. +Anders Arborelius ocd

Kommentar till Edith Södergrans Dikter och aforismer

Kommentar till Edith Södergrans Dikter och aforismer

Svenska litteratursällskapet i Finland
2016
sidottu
När Edith Södergran debuterade hösten 1916 var mottagandet blandat. Dikterna representerade något helt nytt och gav upphov till divergerande tolkningar. Sedan dess har Södergrans produktion fortsatt att inspirera och utmana till nya läsningar. Första delen av Samlade skrifter, Dikter och aforismer, utkom 1990 och den andra, Brev, 1996. Denna tredje del presenterar den nu sekellånga receptionen i kritik och forskning och synliggör hur tolkningstraditioner bryts mot varandra och frilägger olika betydelseskikt i dikterna. Genom översikterna framträder utvecklingslinjerna i Södergrans författarskap. Här presenteras receptionen av diktsamlingarna och här ingår också fullständiga textkritiska kommentarer, som bl.a. visar hur Södergran ändrade i manuskripten. Avsnittet Varia omfattar Södergrans översättningar, insändare, några manuskript, och korrespondens som blivit tillgänglig efter 1996.

Cornelio Fabro on Edith Stein

Cornelio Fabro on Edith Stein

Cornelio Fabro

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2026

Cornelio Fabro’s writings on Edith Stein elucidate Fabro’s understanding of Stein’s contemporary relevance to philosophical debates about the relationship between Thomism and Phenomenology. For the first time in the English Language, Joshua Furnal brings together a selection of works that are representative of Cornelio Fabro’s perspective on Edith Stein, offering a distinctive yet overlooked contribution to Steinian literature. Furnal begins, in the introduction, by exploring the impact of Edith Stein’s writings on Fabro’s stance toward the phenomenological tradition. Fabro’s engagement with phenomenology first surfaced in 1941 when he published two books simultaneously: Perception and Thought and The Phenomenology of Perception. Subsequently, his engagement with Stein’s philosophical writings first appeared in publications from 1949 to 1951, and then again in 1969, 1978, and 1989 in relation to her canonization process. Fabro’s significance to Stein studies is due not only to his involvement in writing the dossier that facilitated her canonization process at the Vatican, but also to his appreciation for her existential approach to the relationship between faith and reason—which led her to martyrdom. As a Thomist and priest, Fabro viewed Stein as an important philosopher in her own right and saw an important link between his own Stigmatine background and Stein’s spirituality. This translation introduces Fabro’s understanding of Stein’s philosophy and sainthood and the broader issues that converge at the intersection of their thought.

Pastoral Cosmopolitanism in Edith Wharton’s Fiction

Pastoral Cosmopolitanism in Edith Wharton’s Fiction

Margarida Cadima

ANTHEM PRESS
2026
nidottu
American novelist Edith Wharton (1862–1937) is best known today for her tales of the city and the experiences of patrician New Yorkers in the “Gilded Age.” This book pushes against the grain of critical orthodoxy by prioritizing other “species of spaces” in Wharton’s work. For example, how do Wharton’s narratives represent the organic profusion of external nature? Does the current scholarly fascination with the environmental humanities reveal previously unexamined or overlooked facets of Wharton’s craft? I propose that what is most striking about her narrative practice is how she utilizes, adapts, and translates pastoral tropes, conventions, and concerns to twentieth-century American actualities. It is no accident that Wharton portrays characters returning to, or exploring, various natural localities, such as private gardens, public parks, chic mountain resorts, monumental ruins, or country-estate “follies.” Such encounters and adventures prompt us to imagine new relationships with various geographies and the lifeforms that can be found there. The book addresses a knowledge gap in Wharton and the environmental humanities, especially recent debates in ecocriticism. The excavation of Wharton's words and the background of her narratives with an eye to offering an ecocritical reading of her work is what the book focuses on.
