Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Nicholas Cabasilas (born 1319/1323 in Thessalonica; died after 1391) was a Byzantine mystic and theological writer. Cabasilas is a saint within the Orthodox Church. His feast day is June 20. He was on intimate terms with the emperor John VI Cantacuzene, whom he accompanied in his retirement to a monastery. In 1355 he succeeded his uncle Nilus Cabasilas, like himself a determined opponent of the union of the Orthodox and Latin churches, as archbishop of Thessalonica.
