Summary Annotation "The writings ascribed to the Athenian convert of St Paul, Denys (or Dionysius) the Aeropagite, made their first appearance in the early sixth century. Since then, through the Renaissance and beyond, they have exercised an enormous influence on Christian thought, both in the East and in the West. Yet who their author was remains a mystery." "This book explores Denys' theology, which draws both on the great Greek theologians of the fourth century - the Cappadocian Fathers - and on the strictly pagan philosophical tradition of late Athenian Neoplatonism, as well as showing affinities with the Christian thought of Syria."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
