biography

The older brother of Massimo d'Azeglio came as a marquis of a noble family and entered the Jesuit order in 1814. He was initially active as the rector of the Collegium Romanum . Here he became the teacher of the later Pope Leo XIII. who, with the encyclicals Aeterni Patris and Rerum Novarum, raised parts of the neo-scholasticism and social scholasticism to the official doctrinal opinion. D'Azeglio's attempt to revive scholasticism met with a lot of resistance within the Jesuits, which is one of the reasons why he was transferred to Palermo , where he taught ethics at the Jesuit College Massimo for 15 years. The reaction to the revolution of 1848/49 led to the breakthrough of neo-scholasticism, D'Azeglio was called back to Rome, where he founded the magazine La Civiltà Cattolica .

plant

As one of the first pioneers of the renaissance of the Aristotelian - Thomistic philosophy ( neo-scholasticism ), he also became the most important stimulator of social scholasticism and, above all, influenced the natural and constitutional thinking of neo-scholasticism. In his work, attempt at a natural law based on experience (1840–43), the term social justice was used for the first time , so the term originally goes back to him. His conception of the state was determined by the rejection of the idea of ​​the social contract , he viewed human society rather as an order formed by human beings' natural social dispositions and social obligations, which knows their own rights and the common good.
