Question of Authorship of Corpus Dionysiacum

This article discusses the state of research on the problem of the authorship of Corpus Dionysiacum, with particular emphasis on the findings by Michel van Esbroeck.

Considering the role of Corpus Dionysiacum in the history of Christianity, the question of the authorship of this collection is important.
