Ambiguum 10 of Maximus the Confessor in Modern Study : Papers Collected on the Occasion of the Budapest Colloquium on Saint Maximus, 3-4 February 2021

Ambiguum 10 is an important sample of Maximus the Confessor's philosophical exegesis, which has not received concentrated scholarly attention so far. This volume includes a new critical text edition by Prof. Carl Laga and a new English translation by Dr. Joshua Lollar. It also offers a unique insight into the universe of the great Christian thinker, showcasing his extensive knowledge of Aristotelian, Platonic and Neoplatonic philosophy and offering possible parallels with the Corpus Hermeticum and Ps-Dionysius the Areopagite. The present volume is the first attempt to bring together scholars from different traditions to understand the message and the reception of this seminal work. [Publisher's Text]
