'''Attributed texts'''
* ''[[Scholia (Maximus the Confessor)|Scholia]]'' – commentary on the earlier writings of Pseudo-Dionysius. The original edition in Latin of Balthasar Corderius (Antwerp 1634) attributes all of the Scholia to Maximus, but the authorship has been questioned with [[Hans Urs von Balthasar]] (1940, 1961) attributing some of the Scholia to [[John of Scythopolis]].<ref>Cosmic liturgy: the universe according to Maximus the Confessor – Page 393 [[Hans Urs von Balthasar]] 1961 English translation 2003</ref>
* ''[[Life of the Virgin (Biography)|Life of the Virgin]]'' – earliest complete biography of Mary, the mother of Jesus.<ref>Stephen J. Shoemaker, trans., [http://yalepress.yale.edu/YupBooks/book.asp?isbn=9780300175042 ''Maximus the Confessor, The Life of the Virgin: Translated, with an Introduction and Notes''] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120522034014/http://yalepress.yale.edu/YupBooks/book.asp?isbn=9780300175042 |date=2012-05-22 }} (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2012) ({{ISBN|0300175043}}); [http://commonwealmagazine.org/maximus%E2%80%99s-mary Maximus's Mary], by Sally Cuneen, ''Commonweal Magazine'', 4 December 2009</ref> This is an attributed work and now believed not to be by Maximus the Confessor. Jankowiak and Booth argue that "none of Maximus' characteristic preoccupations appear in the ''Life'', and in turn none of the ''Life' ''s central themes appear in the fleeting Marian reflections contained within his genuine corpus". They also write that there is no Greek manuscript witnessing the text, no evidence that any key thinkers who draw on Maximus were aware of the ''Life' ''s existence and that no record of the ''Life'' as a work exists prior to the second half of the tenth century.<ref>{{Cite book|title="A New Date-List of the Works of Maximus the Confessor" in The Oxford Handbook of Maximus the Confessor|author1=Jankowiak, M.|author2=Booth, P.|publisher=Oxford University Press|year=2015|isbn=978-0-19-967383-4|location=Oxford|pages=72–3}}</ref>
