Abstract

This paper, from the context of Edith Stein´s existence and her work, reveals the relationship she recognizes between empathy and religious experience. Man apprehends the spiritual life of their equals through empathy, as well as the religious experience of others. The former and the latter are the path to understand men and their willingness to find God.
