book Rispoli published just one book in his lifetime, and that was at the beginning of his academic and intellectual career. Copies of the publication are extremely rare. Two are known to exist, one is at the Dominican Archive at Rabat, Malta, and another at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France in Paris, France. 1609 – Status Controversiæ Prædefinitionum et Prædeterminationum cum Libero Arbitrio (The State of the Question dealing with the Predefinition and the Predestination of Free Will). The book, in Latin, was published on June 15, 1609, by Reginald Chaudière, Paris. It contains twenty-two introductory pages (Roman numbering) and 424 body pages (Arabic numbering), and measures 17 cm x 10.5 cm. It was published cum privilegio Regis (by appointment of the King). Endorsed manuscripts These fourteen manuscripts are all held at the Dominican Archive at Rabat, Malta. They were put in writing by a cleric, John Mary Camilleri, who attended Rispoli's lectures, and presumably sanctioned for their accuracy by Rispoli himself (for they were in his possession). Some of the lectures were read at the Dominican Studium of the Portus Salutis Priory at Valletta, Malta, and others at the Dominican Studium of the Annunciation Priory at Vittoriosa, Malta. They are the following: c.1617 – Tractatus Summularum (A Short Treatise on Logic). 1617 – Expositio Librorum Prædicabilium (An Exposition on Aristotle's 'Categories). 1617 – In Aristotelis Prædicamenta Expositio (An Exposition on Aristotle's 'Categories). 1617 – In Libros Posteriorum Aristotelis Expositio (An Exposition on Aristotle's 'Posterior Analytics). 1618/19 – Quæstiones in Libros De Anima (Themes related to Aristotle's 'On the Soul). 1618 – Subtilissima Expositio In Octo Libros Aristotelis Physicorum (''A Detailed Exposition on the Eight Books of Aristotle's 'Physics). 1619 – Expositio In Libros Aristotelis De Generatione et Corruptione (An Exposition on the Books of Aristotle's 'On Coming-To-Be and Passing Away). 1619 – Expositio in Tractatum De Ente et Essentia Divi Thomæ (An Exposition on Aquinas' Treatise 'On Being and Essence). c.1631 – Summa Totius Logicae (An Anthology on Logic). c.1631 – Comentarium in Libros De Anima (A Commentary on the Books of Aristotle's 'On the Soul). c.1631 – Tractatus De Sensibus (A Treatise on the Senses). c.1631 – Tractatus De Potentia (A Treatise on Potency). c.1631 – Liber Primus De Generatione (On the First Book of Aristotle's 'On Coming-To-Be and Passing Away'). c.1631 – Summa Librorum Physicorum (An Anthology on Physics).
