Theodo'rus PRODROMUS

63. PRODROMUS. There were two of this name.

1. A writer on canonical law, whose ἐξήγησις of the canons of the councils is repeatedly quoted by Nic. Comnenus and others. Nothing is known of his personal history, but that he seems to have lived a long time before Balsamo. (Fabric. Bibl. Graec. vol. x. p. 428, vol. xii. p. 206.) There is some confusion in the notices contained in Fabricius. In vol. x. p. 429, and vol. xii. p. 206, he speaks of this Prodromus as τὸν τῶν ἱερῶν κανόνων πρῶτον σαφηνιστήν, and as the author of an exposition of the canones or hymns appropriated to the dominical festivals; while in vol. viii. p. 142. note h. that work is assigned to the following Theodorus Prodromus.

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.
