Rosmini e le origini della fenomenologia

Interazioni di pensiero italiano e mitteleuropeo tra Ottocento e Novecento

Abstract

The first part of this paper consists of a comparison between Rosmini’s gnoseological perspectives and Brentano’s one, starting from a passage in which the latter discusses the position of the first. The second part of the paper outlines the position of other Italian philosophers of the early twentieth century, who very early compared Rosmini’s ideology with the gnoseological realism of Brentano and his school. Some of them, such as De Sarlo, developed this comparison in the empirical-perceptive direction and in line with Brentano’s descriptive psychology; others, such as Capone Braga, followed the intuitive-ideal-eidetic line, in greater accord with Husserl’s early phenomenology.
