Ladislav Chvatal, Concept of "grace" in Dionysius the Areopagite

The paper treats some of the motives in Pseudo-Dionysius that could be regarded as expressing a "concept of grace". The first part deals with God's relation to the created world (for ex. goodness, philanthropia), the second part concerns human response to God's descent (theurgy, ascent of soul, divinization).
