Dionysius Areopagita

Japanese: ディオニュシウス・アレオパギタ(英語表記)Dionysius Areopagita
Dionysius Areopagita
A member of the Athenian Supreme Court who was converted to Christianity by Paul, as seen in Acts 17:34. In Greek, he was called Dionysios ho Areopagitēs. Legend has it that he later became bishop of Rome or of Paris, and was considered to be one of the apostles. He was considered the author of the so-called Dionysian writings throughout the Middle Ages, until Barra in 1457 and Erasmus in 1504 questioned their authenticity.
