the essence of the human soul; the second, of certain properties of the human soul; the third, of the union of soul and body and their reciprocal influence; the fourth, of the simplicity of the human soul and questions therewith connected; the fifth, of the immortality of the human soul and the death of man; the sixth and seventh, of the activity of the human soul; the eighth and ninth, of the laws that govern the activity of the human soul; and the tenth, of the laws of animality. Besides, the first volume contains a preface to the whole of the metaphysical works and an appendix of 151 pages, On the Opinions of Philosophers in regard to the Nature of the Soul, an amplification and continuation of the first book of Aristotle's De Animâ.

15. Theosophy (Teosofia). 5 vols. 8vo. Vols. I.-III. Società Editrice di Libri di Filosofia, Turin, 1859, 1863, 1864, pp. xvi., 727; x., 551; 435. Vols. IV., V., Bertolotti, Intra, 1869, 1874, pp. 588, 636.

The plan of this posthumous work was several times recast in the mind of the author, and the parts that remain do not all belong to the same plan. The first volume contains three books-the first on The Ontological Problem; the second on the Categories, the supreme classification of beings; and the third on Being in its Unity. The second and third volumes treat of Being in its Trinity (L'Essere Trino). The fourth is made up of two distinct works, The Divine in Nature, dedicated to Alessandro Manzoni, and the treatise on The Idea, already named, No. 12. The fifth volume deals with The Real, that is, the most difficult problems of space, matter, and body and its movements, and may be considered as a fragment of Cosmology. Perhaps of all works written in modern times this is the most suggestive. The Divine in Nature and the treatise on The Real furnish many elements for a new Weltanschauung. An index to the first three volumes by Severino Frati has just appeared, Paravia, Turin, etc., 1881.

16. Historico-Critical Treatise on the Categories (Trattato Storico-Critico delle Categorie). A small work, of the nature of Trendelenburg's Geschichte der Kategorien lehre.

17. Dialectics (La Dialettica). Begun on 5th December, 1846, and finished 26th June, 1847: never revised or printed.

18. Theodicy (Teodicea, Libri III.). This work is made

up of parts written at different periods of the author's life. The second book, under the title of Saggio della Divina Provvidenza nel Governo dei Beni e dei Mali temporali, was first printed by Visai, Milan, 1826, then at Mendrisio in 1839; the first and second appeared together, under the same title, in the Opuscoli Filosofici, in 1827-28, and the three together, with the title Teodicea, were printed by Boniardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1845, 8vo. There is an edition printed by the Società Editrice di Libri di Filosofia, Turin, 1857. 2 vols. 16mo, pp. xv., 215, 415.

On the contents of this work, see below, under § 188.

19. Vincenzo Gioberti and Pantheism (Vincenzo Gioberti e il Panteismo: Lezioni Filosofiche). Printed as a reply to Gioberti's polemical work, Gli Errori Filosofici di Antonio Rosmini, in the Filo-Cattolico, Florence, 1845; Bonardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1846; Tramater, Naples, 1847; with additions, Giusti, Lucca, 1853.

CLASS III.

PHILOSOPHY OF MORALS AND RIGHT.

20. Principles of Moral Science (Principi delle Scienza. Morale). Milan, 1831; Boniardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1837; Batelli, Naples; Bertolotti, Intra, 1867; 8vo, pp. 127.

21. Comparative and Critical History of the Systems that treat of the Principle of Morals (Storia Comparativa e Critica de' Sistemi intorno al Principio della Morale). BoniardiPogliani, Milan, 1837; Batelli, Naples; Bertolotti, Intra, 1867; 8vo, pp. 360.

These two works are in the Intra edition included in one volume, which has an excellent preface of twenty pages.

22. Anthropology in aid of Moral Science (Antropologia in Servigio della Scienza Morale, Libri IV.).

BoniardiPogliani, Milan, 1838; Batelli, Naples; Miglio, Novara, 1847; 8vo, pp. 568.

This work, in spite of its title, might, with perfect propriety, be placed under Class II., as preliminary to the Psychology. The first book treats of Man; the second, of Animality; the third, of Spirituality; and the fourth, of The Subject Man. It is one of the best of Rosmini's works.

23. Treatise on the Conscience (Trattato della Coscienza Morale). Boniardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1839, 1844 (revised), 8vo, pp. 474; Batelli, Naples.

This work is quite as much theological as philosophical, and called out much criticism, especially from the Jesuits.

24. Exposition of the Catholic Doctrine with reference to Original Sin (Esposizione della Dottrina Cattolica intorno al Peccato Originale). Printed in the Opuscoli Morali, Boniardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1841.

25. The Notions of Sin and Fault Elucidated (Le Nozioni di Peccato e di Colpa Illustrate). BoniardiPogliani, Milan, 1842 and 1843. Two parts. Part I., 8vo, pp. 80; Part II., 8vo, pp. 94.

Most of the copies of the second part of this work were withdrawn from circulation by the author himself; but it has just been republished. Only the first appears in the Opuscoli Morali, Milan, 1842.

26. On the Definition of the Moral Law and on the Theory of Ideal Being (Sulla Definizione della Legge Morale e sulla Teoria dell' Essere Ideale. Risposta alle Osservazioni del R. P. Gius. L. Dmowski della C. d. G.). Bellotti, Arezzo, 1841; Boniardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1842, 8vo, pp. 51; Batelli, Naples.

27. Reply to the Pretended Christian Eusebius (Risposta al finto Eusebio cristiano). Boniardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1841, 8vo, pp. 304, in Opuscoli Morali, 1843; and Batelli, Naples.

This is the work which gave so much pleasure to Pope Gregory XVI., who said that Rosmini, with blood in his veins, could hardly have refrained from writing it.

28. On the Principle, THE DOUBTFUL LAW DOES NOT BIND, and the Proper Application of it (Sul Principio, La Legge dubbia non obbliga e sulla retta Maniera di Applicarla. Lettere di Antonio Rosmini-Serbati, con una Risposta di Monsig. Scavini ed una Replica alla medesima). Casuccio, Casale, 1850, 8vo, pp. 107; Pirotta, Milan, 1851.

This volume contains letters to several persons, collected from various periodicals, e.g. the Florilegio Cattolico di Fede e Patria, and the Pragmatalogia Cattolica of Lucca, years 1847–48. They were called forth chiefly by attacks made upon Rosmini's Treatise on the Conscience (No. 23).

29. Philosophy of Right (Filosofia del Diritto). Boniardi-Pogliani, Milan, 1842, sq.; Batelli, Naples; Bertolotti, Intra, 1865-66 (from the copy annotated by the author); 2 vols, 8vo, pp. 804, 1000.
