By Evagrius Ponticus and Evagrius

Book Overview

The Ecclesiastical History of Evagrius is a book written by the historian Evagrius in the late 6th century AD. This book provides a detailed account of the Christian Church from the Council of Ephesus in 431 AD to the reign of the Emperor Maurice in 594 AD. The book covers important events such as the Nestorian controversy, the rise of monasticism, and the Council of Chalcedon. This particular edition of the book, published in 1898, includes the Scholia, which are explanatory notes and commentary on the text.
