SCHMID, ALOIS von. - Philosopher and theologian, b. 22 Dec. 1825 at Zaumberg bei Immenstadt (Bavaria), d. 16 March 1910 at Munich. After completing his studies at Augsburg and Munich, he was ordained a priest in 1849.
He taught at the Gymnasium of Zweibrücken (1850-52), whence he moved as professor of philosophy to Dillingen (1853-66), then for 37 years held (until 1903) the chair of dogmatics and apologetics at the University of Munich. In his numerous publications he attempted a rapprochement between traditional scholastic philosophy and modern thought, particularly that of Kant, whose subjectivism he intended to correct, without always drawing a clear distinction between the natural and the supernatural. Accused therefore of rationalism, he defended himself energetically against the attacks of Schäfer (v.) and Glossner. He wrote: Bisthumssynode (2 vols., s. l. 1850-51); Entwicklungsgesch. der Hegelschen Logik (Regensburg 1858); Thomistische u. Scotist. Gewissheitslehre (Dillingen 1859); Wissenschaftliche Richtungen auf dem Gebiete des Katholikismus (1862); Wissenschaft u. Autorität (1868); Untersuchungen über den letzten Gewissheitsgrund des Offenbarungsglaubens (1879); Gefühl u. Gefühlsvermögen (1884); Erkenntnisslehre (2 vols., Freiburg im Breisgau 1890); Apologetik als spekulative Grundlegung der Theologie (1900).
