9. MONACHUS, ecclesiae Constantinopolitanae presbyter and Ignatii patriarchae syncellus.

Works

He wrote:

1. Encomium Ignatii Patriarchae

Ignatius died in 877.

Editions

Edited Greek and Latin, in a very mutilated form, by Raderus in his Acta Concilü, Ingolstadt, 1604, 4to., also in the eighth vol. of the Concilia.

2. Encomium in Angelicorum Ordinum Ductores, Michaelem et Gabrielem.

3. Encomium in gloriosum Christi Apostolum Philippum.

4. Perhaps Vita et Miracula Sti Nicolai.

5. Vita Theodori Studitae.

The life of Theodore Studita, as well as one or two of the other productions, were perhaps written by another Michael Monachus, a contemporary and survivor of Studita who died as early as 826. The author of this life was a very incompetent writer.

Editions

Baronius gives some fragments of this in his Annales ad an. 795 and 826.

The complete text with a Latin translation was published by Jacobus de la Baune in the fifth vol. of Opera Sirmondi, Paris, 1696, fol.
