Also, posterior to Pseudo-Dionysius but very much influenced by him, I'd also recommend to anyone interested in this to also read about Hesychasm: > Hesychasm is a contemplative monastic tradition in the Eastern Orthodox Church in which stillness (hēsychia) is sought through uninterrupted Jesus prayer.[web 1] While rooted in early Christian monasticism, it took its definitive form in the 14th century at Mount Athos. Gregory Palamas [2] is the most well-known theologian behind that movement. Related to today's geo-political events, later on, in the 1700s, hesychasm made its way to some of the most important monasteries in Russia via Northern Moldova and via this Ukrainian monk, Paisius Velichkovsky [3]: > Saint Paisius Velichkovsky or Wieliczkowski (Paisie de la Neamţ in Romanian; Паисий Величковский in Russian; Паїсій Величковський in Ukrainian; 20 December 1722 – 15 November 1794) was an Eastern Orthodox monk and theologian who helped spread staretsdom or the concept of the spiritual elder to the Slavic world.[2] He is a pivotal figure in Orthodox Church history.
