 * 1853, Orlando Williams Wight, Philosophy of Sir William Hamilton, Bart., D. Appleton & Company, New York
 * The case is different with the adjective noetic. The correlatives noetic and dianoetic would afford the best philosophical designations—the former for an intuitive principle, or truth at first hand; the latter for a demonstrative proposition, or truth at second hand. Noology and Noological, Dianoialogy and Dianoialogical would be also technical terms of much convenience in various departments of philosophy. On the doctrine of first principles as a department of ‘Gnostology,’ the philosophy of knowledge, we have indeed during the seventeenth century, by German authors alone, a series of special treatises, under the titles—of ‘Noologia,’ by Calovius, 1651, Mejerus, 1662, Wagnerus, 1670, and Zeidlerus, 1680,—and of ‘Intelligentia,’ by Gutkius, 1625, and Geilfussius, 1662.
