Hesy'chius

bishop of Salona in Dalmatia, who flourished about the beginning of the fifth century, maintained a friendly intercourse with St. Augustin and St. Chrysostom, as we gather from their works; a letter has been preserved addressed to him by Pope Zosimus in A. D. 418.

Works

Letter

The only epistle written by Hesychius himself now extant will be found among the correspondence of St. Augustin, and is numbered CXCVIII. in the Benedictine edition.

Further Information

Augustin, De Civ. Dei, 20.5, Ep. cxcvii, cxcviii, cxcix. vol. ii. ed. Bened. ; Schönemann, Bibl. Patrum Lat. vol. 2.14 ; Bähr, in his Geschichte der Römischen Litterat. suppl. band. II. abtheil. § 141, by some mistake apparently names this prelate Hegesippus instead of Hesychius.

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
