Denys the Areopagite
Andrew
Louth examines all the traditions on which Denys' work draws: the
Fourth Century Greek theologians, pagan philosophy and Syrian Christian
thought. The corpus of Denys the Areopagite appeared in the sixth
century and have since been deeply influential on Christian thinking
both in East and West. Who their author was remains a mystery but in
this book Professor Louth documents and comments on his compelling
vision of the beauty of God's world and his revelation, together with
his profound awareness of the ultimate mystery of the unknowable God who
utterly transcends all being.>
