  • John of Scythopolis and the Dionysian Corpus

    Paul Rorem, John C LamoreauxBOOKJohn of Scythopolis and the…1998

    John, the sixth-century orthodox bishop of Scythopolis in Palestine, was the first of many authors to comment upon the highly influential Pseudo–Dionysian writings (such as The Mystical Theology). Here translated and interpreted, John's Prologue and Scholia (marginalia) have only recently been separable from later comments. They present his complex theological and philosophical observations on the Dionysian texts. The book begins with the general…

    Paul Rorem, John C LamoreauxCHAPTERJohn of Scythopolis and the…1998

    John C LamoreauxARTICLEVigiliae Christianae1998

Was the author of this commentary a friend and ally of Severus of Antioch? If not, who then was he? Such questions are important becaus…

    As is well known, theCorpus Dionysiacum(CD) first appeared on the stage of history in the first quarter of the sixth century; what is less well known is that within a generation of its appearance the CD was commented upon by an Orthodox author, John of Scythopolis (d.c. 548). Thereafter, the CD was circulated in a much expanded format-prefaced with John'sPrologueand annotated with hisScholia. John's interpretive work, so close in time to the comp…
