Gregory, See also:patriarch of that See also:city, whom he successfully defended at See also:Constantinople against certain serious charges. Through this connexion he was brought under the See also:notice of the See also:emperor Tiberius See also:Constantine, who honoured him with the See also:rank of quaestorian; See also:Maurice Tiberius made him See also:master of the rolls. His See also:influence and reputation were so considerable that on the occasion of his second See also:marriage a public festival was celebrated in his See also:honour, which was interrupted by a terrible See also:earthquake. Evagrius's name has been preserved by his Ecclesiastical See also:History in six books, extending over the See also:period from the third See also:general See also:council(that of See also:Ephesus, 431) to the See also:year 593. It thus continues the See also:work of See also:Eusebius, See also:Socrates, See also:Sozomen and See also:Theodoret. Though not wholly trustworthy, and often very credulous, this work is on the whole impartial, and appears to have been compiled from See also:original documents, from which many valuable excerpts are given. It is particularly helpful to the student of the history of See also:dogma during the 5th and 6th centuries, while the See also:political history of the See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf.
