Bd. 1: Vorträge über die erste Hälfte des Evangeliums Johannis. - Bd. 2: Vorträge über die zweite Hälfte des Evangeliums Johannis. A THIRD VOLUME, NOT PRESENT HERE was published posthumously by Coppenrath in Regensburg (1867). / Hirschberger called Deutinger: "der bedeutendste katholische Ästhetiker um die Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts, auf den außer Schelling auch Görres und der namhafteste Schelling- Schüler Franz von Baader eingewirkt haben" (Geschichte der Philosophie 2, 393). The history of theology places him amongst the later students of the Tübingen school around 1850 who attempted to replace external systematics with a concept of the organic unity of moral theology (Roger Aubert). This resistance to superficial positivism raised Deutinger into the pantheon of 19th century heroes calling for reprints in the 1930s and respectful treatment by modernizing Catholics such as Karl Muth.
