| description | The school of phenomenology went with Edith Stein all her life and became one of the
guiding strings of her thought, which deepens more and more on the experience of the crucified. The
Steinian idea of freedom starts from philosophy. However, it is intimately crossed by the theological
(and mystical) question, since, for the author, the historical realization of the human life is possible
when it participates in the divine life because God configures his own life in perfect freedom. The
basic idea in Stein’s proposal on human freedom is the self-configuration of oneself in the divine
image. On the other hand, when Stein asks herself, “What is freedom?” she answers, “It means the
same as this: I can”. What does this answer mean? In order to understand the comprehensiveness of
Ich kann and its relation to self-configuration, it is necessary to realize the foundations that support
this “I can”. Therefore, the present study will consider the two essential points of support for it:
the phenomenological concept of intentionality (Intentionalität), proper to Brentano’s thought and
inherited from Husserl, and the human experience of the phenomenon of divine love.
