Excerpt from The Philosophical System of Antonio Rosmini-Serbati: Translated, With a Sketch of the Authors Life, Bibliography, Introduction, and Notes The purpose of the present work is threefold: first, to introduce the most important of modern Italian philosophical systems to the notice of English speaking thinkers who have not had an opportunity of studying it in the original language; second, to present it fairly to those for whom it has been systematically misrepresented; and, third, to furnish an introductory handbook to the study of modern Italian thought, so little known outside of Italy. With the exception of a small work edited by Father Lockhart, a brief notice in the American translation of Ueberweg's Handbuch dcr Geschichtc der Philosophic, an essay by Monseigneur Ferre, a few notices in Brownson's Quarterly Review, and a few sketches by myself in various periodicals, there exists hardly anything in English on Rosmini. Of systematic attempts that have been made to stir up an odium theologicum against Rosmini's system, it would be inedifying to say anything more than is said in the Introduction.
