Adolf Reinach greatly contributed to a number of branches of philosophical knowledge: philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, formal ontology, social ontology, philosophy of law. His scientific production is characterized by profound philosophical maturity, which the author attained despite his early death in 1917, when he was only thirty-three. Reinach played a key role in the development of phenomenological realism and was a cornerstone of the philosophical circles of Munich and Göttingen. His major work, The Apriori Foundations of the Civil Law, published in 1913, is an insightful application of the phenomenological method to the legal field. Reinach criticizes legal positivism, guilty of having vested the legislator with the power to create the relations that constitute the essence of legal entities. According to Reinach, such relationships are not only independent of the activity of the lawmaker but also constitute its prerequisite and it is precisely in this sense that they are the a priori foundations of law. ; Adolf Reinach ha offerto un prezioso contributo in diversi ambiti del sapere filosofico: la filosofia del linguaggio, la filosofia della mente, l'ontologia formale, l'ontologia sociale, la filosofia del diritto.

AbstractThis paper aims to present and evaluate the (unduly neglected) account of the essence of colours developed by the early phenomenologist Adolf Reinach. Reinach claims that colours, as regards their nature or essence, are physical entities. He is opposed to the idea that colours are "subjective" or "psychic". It might be the case that the colours we see in the world do not exist but are mere appearances. However, their non-existence would not entail any change in their essence: that is, they would not be psychic, but would just be non-existent physical entities. In Reinach's view, we can be "ontic-neutral essentialists" about colours: we can remain neutral as to the existence of colours but still make claims about their essence. In the first part of the paper, I present Reinach's take on the essence of colours. In the second part, I address his existential neutrality about colours; in particular, I argue that Reinach's ontic-neutral essentialism brings to the fore a seldom noted but crucial distinction to be made in the discussion of colours, that between empirical and metaphysical non-realism about colours.

The aim of the paper is to analize the cognitive and existential status of negative state affairs,
defined as the ontological correlates of the true negative logical judgements. I take up this issue on
the basis of the three phenomenological conceptions, created by Meinong, Reinach and Ingarden.
After analysing all conceptions I reject the two first solutions, which are homogeneous and
objective (respectively: idealistic and realistic) and argue for the heterogenous solution proposed
by Ingarden. It is because only the last one doesn't confuse the criterion of the truth with the
criterion of the existence.
