The article deals with the little studied and partially unpublished corpus of works composed by Kallistos Angelikoudes, one of the most interesting authors of late Byzantine hesychasm. It addresses some of the problems associated with the manuscript tradition of Kallistos’ writings. Among other things, the article introduces the manuscript Vatop. 610 from Athos, which until now has been virtually unknown to scholars studying the manuscript tradition of Kallistos Angelikoudes. The article also offers a new approach to the systematization of Kallistos' works. In conclusion, it traces the origins of the unique text possibly composed at the end of the fourteenth century and known as the Canon of Compunction. The text is attributed in manuscripts to Makarios Kataphygiotes, believed to be one of Kallistos Angelikoudes’ disciples.
