The Complete Works - Pseudo-dionysius

Descriere The Complete Works - Pseudo-dionysius

\n \nKnown as the Corpus Areopagiticum, this collection of works was falsely attributed by its author as being written by Dionysius the Areopagite, a first century AD Athenian convert of Paul the Apostle mentioned in Acts 17:34. Because of this erroneous attribution great attention was given by early Christian scholars, most notably the late 13th and early 14th century scholar Meister Eckhart. Sometime in the 15th century it came to light that this collection of works was most likely the work of some anonymous late 5th or early 6th century author, who has subsequently been referred to as Pseudo-Dionysius. While this reattribution has diminished the Corpus Areopagiticum importance in Christian literature the collection still holds an important interest among scholars because of a renewed interest in the huge impact of Dionysian thought on later Christian thought. Included in this collection is the complete Corpus Areopagiticum, which includes the following individual works: Divine Names, Mystic Theology, Heavenly Hierarchy, Ecclesiastical Hierarchy, and Letters of Dionysius the Areopagite. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and follows the translations of John Parker. \n
