# " the practice of inner prayer, aiming at union with God on a level beyond images, concepts and language ", a sense in which the term is found in Evagrius Ponticus ( 345-399 ), Maximus the Confessor ( c. 580-662 ), and Symeon the New Theologian ( 949-1022 );

Isidore was one of the last of the ancient Christian philosophers ; he was the last of the great Latin Church Fathers and was contemporary with Maximus the Confessor.

Dionysius was initially used by monophysites to back up parts of their arguments, but his writings were eventually adopted by other church theologians as well, primarily due to the work of John of Scythopolis and Maximus the Confessor in producing an orthodox interpretation.

Dionysius ' authenticity is criticized later in the century, and defended by Theodore of Raithu ; and by the 7th century, it is taken as demonstrated, affirmed by both Maximus the Confessor and the 649 Lateran Council.

The council carefully avoided any mention of Maximus the Confessor, who was still regarded with suspicion.

When the council had concluded, the decrees were sent to Rome where they were confirmed by Agatho's successor, Pope Leo II The subsequent Byzantine tradition came to interpret the decrees in line with the teaching of Maximus the Confessor, which brilliantly combined a recognition ( shared with the monotheletes ) that all Christ's individual actions were directed by his divine will with an insistence that his human will nevertheless possessed true spontaneity, in virtue of its intrinsic drive ( as created ) to obey its Creator.

Meanwhile in Africa, a monk named Maximus the Confessor carried on a furious campaign against Monothelitism, and in 646 he convinced the African councils to draw up a manifesto against the doctrine.

Apophatic theology found its most influential expression in works such as those of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite and Maximus the Confessor ( Pseudo-Dionysius is quoted by Thomas Aquinas 1, 760 times in his Summa Theologica ).

While Aquinas felt positive and negative theology should be seen as dialetical correctives to each other, like thesis and antithesis producing a synthesis, Lossky argues, based on his reading of Dionysius and Maximus Confessor, that positive theology is always inferior to negative theology, a step along the way to the superior knowledge attained by negation.

Maximus the Confessor ( Greek Μάξιμος ο Ομολογητής ) also known as Maximus the Theologian and Maximus of Constantinople ( c. 580 – 13 August 662 ) was a Christian monk, theologian, and scholar.
