Italian original Cite

SIGNORIELLO, NUNZIO. - Neo-Scholastic philosopher, b. in Naples in 1831, d. there on 11 Oct. 1889. A pupil of Sanseverino (v.), and like him a professor at the Archiepiscopal Lyceum of Naples, he followed his approach, cooperating effectively in the renewal of Scholastic philosophy.

He completed Sanseverino's work Philosophia christiana cum antiqua et nova comparata, publishing its vol. III, and made of it a compendium in two volumes, valuable for the soundness of its doctrine, the density of its content and the clarity of its exposition. But his name is above all linked to the Lexicon peripateticum philosophico-theologicum (Naples 1854), composed with great diligence and reliable information, which went through numerous editions, including recent ones (Rome 1931).
