Ma'ximus Chrysoberges An account of this writer is given elsewhere. [CHRYSOBERGES LUCAS.] He flourished about A. D. 1400, and was, though a Greek, a strenuous defender of the opinions of the Latin church, sending letters to various persons on this subject, especially to the people of Constantinople. Whether the *Peri\ diafo/rwn kefalai/wn Quaestiones Sacrae Miscellaneee, by "Maximus the Monk," contained in a MS. of the Imperial Library at Vienna, are by Chrysoberges, is not clear. Maximus Chrysoberges had for his antagonist Nilus Damyla. [NILUS.] (Comp. Fabric. Bibl. Graec. vol. ix. p. 679, vol. xi. p. 397; Cave, Hist. Litt. vol. ii. Appendix, p. 87; and Dissert. Prima, p. 14.) [J.C.M]
ned by Sixtas of Sena (Biblioth. Sancta, lib. iv.), as having been first bishop of Gyracium, and afterwards archbishop of Thebes, and as having flourished about A. D. 1400. It is to be observed that Sixtus says Simon Iatumaeus was born at Constantinople ; but perhaps Sixtus was misled by the epithet Constantinopolitanus. He speaksdressed to Cantacuzenus about the time of his abdication, in the middle of the fourteenth century. If, therefore, Simon flourished, as Sixtus of Sena states, in A. D. 1400, he must have attained a considerable age. Cave inclines to the opinion that the Simon who wrote the three treatises on the Holy Spirit was a distinct person from the Simon Jacumaeus (he adds `alias Sacumaeus'), of Sixtus of Sena. He thinks that if they were the same, the date given by Sixtus, A. D. 1400, is incorrect. (Allatius, l.c. ; Fabricius, Bibl. Graec. vol. xi. pp. 301, 334; Cave, Hist. Litt. ad ann. 1276 and 1400, vol. ii. p. 322; and Appendix, p. 87, ed. Oxford, 1740-1743.) S
