Antonio Francesco Davide Ambrogio Rosmini-Serbati, IC (Italian pronunciation: [anˈtɔːnjo roˈzmiːni serˈbaːti]; 25 March 1797  1 July 1855) was an Italian Catholic priest and philosopher. He founded the Rosminians, officially the Institute of Charity, and pioneered the concept of social justice and Italian Liberal Catholicism.

Alessandro Manzoni considered Rosmini the only contemporary Italian author worth reading. Rosmini has been beatified in the Catholic Church.
