description | A philosopher, a Carmelite of Jewish origin and a victim of the Nazis, who was assassinated in Auschwitz, Edith Stein was beatified (1987) and canonized (1998). Her holiness shocked many members of the Jewish communities, who perceived in the choice of the Church a desire to put the specificity of the Holocaust. This essay aims at showing that Edith Steins’ holiness stands at the center of a religious controversy, at the very moment when Catholics and Jews are attempting to establish a “fraternal dialogue” after the decisive turning point of the Second Vatican Council, and the declaration Nostra Aetate regarding the Jews. |
