Dionysius the Areopagite is the name given to the anonymous author
of a number of 5th century Christian texts.
This mystical body of work was influenced by Neoplatonism.
Much admired during the Middle Ages and Renaissance,
debates about the identity of the author continue to this day.
These documents are from a very early stage in the development
of Christianity.
