About the Author's Studies is the opening essay in Rosmini's Introduzione alla Filosfia. Written towards the end of his life and after the publication of many works on philosophy, the essay first deals with the aims he had in writing those works. He wanted to combat error. According to him, we tend to clutch at the outward show of good rather than the true good. In the struggle down the ages against error, knowledge of truth has increased. Rosmini wishes to systematise these truths and present a philosophy that can serve as a basis for all branches of knowledge. Finally, granted religious faith, he wants to present philosophy as an aid to theology because there is no opposition between revelation and philosophy.
