Hitvalló Szt. Maximos életműve
St Maximus' works

Summary/Abstract: In this paper, a complete survey is offered of the life work of the greatest orthodox theologian of the 7th century, St Maximus the Confessor. In a first approach, the extant late ancient and early medieval lists of his oeuvre are considered. In a second approach, three modern surveys are named on the basis of which the present overview is established. In the main part, then, Maximus’ works are categorised in five groups: 1. ascetic, 2. dogmatic, 3. exegetic, 4. liturgical, and 5. other works. Each text is dated with reference to the literature and is described in some detail with especial respect to the more important theological themes in the Confessor’s thought. In the last category, even the less-cited Computus ecclesiasticus and Vita Virginis is covered. The paper closes with an enumeration of the dubia and spuria.
