This article explores the similarities and dissimilarities between their respective views on analogy. It also explains why so little of their correspondence has survived. Most importantly, this article presents a previously unknown poem co-authored by the two thinkers, which was discovered in the Przywara Archive. This is their only known cowritten document, and opens a window on the ideas, spiritualities, and personalities of both Przywara and Stein. |
