Antonio Rosmini-Serbati
(redirected from Rosmini)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.03 sec.
Rosmini-Serbati, Antonio 

Born Mar. 25, 1797, in Ro-vereto; died July 1, 1855, in Stresa. Italian philosopher and theologian; public and church figure.

Ordained in 1821, Rosmini graduated from the University of Padua in 1822. He was an active participant in the movement for the unification of Italy (the Risorgimento). Rosmini’s Of the Five Wounds of the Holy Church, which contained a program for liberal constitutional reforms, was put on the papal Index of Forbidden Books in 1849.

In philosophy Rosmini was responsible for the most influential attempt in Catholicism—aside from neo-Thomism—to use Platonist and Augustinian positions to master the problems of modern European philosophy, especially those raised by German classical idealism and, above all, by I. Kant. Rosmini reduced the Kantian a priori forms of knowledge to an innate idea of potential existence that comes from god and makes all knowledge possible. For Rosmini the epistemological problem becomes the foundation for the proof of the existence of god (The Origin of Ideas, 1830).

In the 20th century, Rosmini’s ideas have served as a source of Christian spiritualism, an idealist philosophical current that is especially influential in Italy, where M. F. Sciacca is among its main proponents.

Works such as Caterina Francesca Ferrucci's Della educazione morale della donna italiana (1848) and Giulia Molino Colombini's Pensieri e lettere sulla educazione della donna in Italia (1851) joined the conservative, traditionalist positions of Rosmini and provided an apotheosis of women's role in the confined boundaries of a prescribed domesticity (De Giorgio, Le italiane 11).
The Rosminian Sisters of Providence, who were founded by the blessed Antonio Rosmini, an Italian philosopher in the 19th Century, moved to the outskirts of the city from their previous home at The Walk in Roath as their numbers began to fall.
