Characterized by both striking originality and remarkable fidelity to the patristic and late neoplatonic traditions, the Dionysian corpus is a coherent and unified structure, whose core and pivot is the treatise known as the \u003ci\u003eEcclesiastical Hierarchy\u003c\/i\u003e. Given Pseudo-Dionysius' fundamental continuity with earlier Christian theology and spirituality, it is not surprising that the church, and in particular the ascetic community, recognized that this theological synthesis articulated its own fundamental experience and aspirations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAlexander Golitzin is professor emeritus of patristics at Marquette University and a bishop in the Orthodox Church.
