Resumo

This paper aims to present Antonio Rosmini’s notions of reason and light of reason regarding their role in the author’s principle of morality as well as influences and contrasts to two specific approaches, namely, Christian Wolff’s and Immanuel Kant’s. That is, although Rosmini was quite inspired by Kant in several points, his notions also retain key elements of conceptions that predate Kant. The first part of this paper shall present Rosmini’s principle of morality – the commandment to recognise and follow the “light of reason”, which he takes to be “being” in its ideal form, leading directly to the commandment of loving all beings in their proper order, the measure by which all being is. The second part will discuss two kinds of influences, directly or indirectly, to the Rosminian conception: at first Christian Wolff’s and, afterwards, Immanuel Kant’s formulations of the principle of morality.
