Abstract
It is proved that if is a Definable theory which is -sound and extends , then can not prove the sentence that expresses the -soundness of . Optimality of this result is showed by constructing a -definable and -sound theory extending such that is -provable. It is also proved that no R.E. arithmetical theory, evevn very weak theories which are not -complete, can prove -soundness of itself.
