This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the mystical theology of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite, delving into the depth of his writings, theological concepts, and their lasting impact on Christian mysticism and philosophy. Rooted in both Christian scripture and Neoplatonic philosophy, Pseudo-Dionysius presents a vision of the divine that emphasizes the transcendent unity of God, the role of divine light in the soul's ascent, and the process of purification, illumination, and union with the divine. Through an analysis of key texts, including The Divine Names, The Celestial Hierarchy, and Mystical Theology, this book examines the fundamental principles of Pseudo-Dionysian thought: the hierarchical structure of reality, the ineffability of God, the paradox of being and non-being, and the transformative power of divine grace. The book traces the influence of Pseudo-Dionysius on both Eastern and Western Christian traditions, showing how his mystical insights shaped the development of theological and mystical practices, from the Hesychast tradition and Gregory Palamas in the East to the Scholastic and medieval mystics in the West. In addition, it highlights how his ideas continue to inspire contemporary spiritual thought and ecumenical dialogue. By offering a deep and sustained analysis of Pseudo-Dionysius' theology, this work provides a pathway to understanding the divine mystery and the soul's journey toward divine union, emphasizing the ongoing relevance of his mystical and philosophical contributions to Christian theology and spirituality.
