Description

This book provides the first full account of Dioscorus as patriarch of Alexandria between 444 and 451 CE. Often historically tarnished as a ruthless 'tyrant-bishop' in the Western Church, Dioscorus is shown rather to be a conflicted reformer against the backdrop of the Later Roman Empire and its political mechanisms for implementing 'Orthodoxy'.
