Abstract

This book of recent publication represents an updated synthesis of the origins, receptions, and influence of the Corpus Dionysiacum. The topics developed are not limited to the Neoplatonic roots and its fusion with Christianity, but rather explore the traditions that converge in the thought of (Pseudo) Dionysius the Areopagite and their deploy in various philosophies and theologies that are deeply affected by the reading modes of the Corpus. The writers recognized authority on the subject and the thematic extension that they cover constitute this volume in a new reference work necessary for Dionysian studies and the receptions of late-ancient thought in general.
