This book offers the first English translation of the funerary
speech for John Chyrsostom delivered by one of his former clergy in
a city close to Constantinople in the autumn of 407 when news
arrived of John's death on a forced march in eastern Asia Minor.
The speech is the earliest and fullest account of John's activities
as bishop of Constantinople between 397 and 404. It replaces the
slightly later Historical Dialogue on John by Palladius as the
prime source for John in Constantinople The translators are both
Late Roman Historians, and their introduction and notes illustrate
the importance of this new text, which was first edited critically
and published as recently as 2007.
