Synopsis

The Celestial And Ecclesiastical Hierarchy Of Dionysius The Areopagite is a book written by Dionysius Areopagita and published in 1894. The book explores the concept of hierarchy in both the celestial and ecclesiastical realms, drawing on the author's knowledge of Christian theology and philosophy. Areopagita's work is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on the celestial hierarchy, which refers to the hierarchy of angels and their roles in the universe, while the second part explores the ecclesiastical hierarchy, which refers to the hierarchy of the church and its leaders. The author provides a detailed analysis of each level of hierarchy, discussing the characteristics and functions of the various beings and entities involved. The book is considered to be a significant work in the history of Christian theology and philosophy, and continues to be studied and referenced by scholars and theologians today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
