Anomoeanism
In 4th-century Christianity, the Anomoeans , and known also as Heterousians , Aetians , or Eunomians , were a sect that upheld an extreme form of Arianism, that Jesus Christ was not of the same nature (consubstantial) as God the Father nor was of like nature (homoiousian), as maintained by the semi-Arians. The word "anomoean" comes from Greek 'not' and 'similar': "different; dissimilar". In the 4th century, during the reign of Constantius II, this was the name by which the followers of Aëtius and Eunomius were described. The term "heterousian" derives from the Greek , ''heterooúsios'', "differing in substance" from , ''héteros'', "another" and , ''ousía'', "substance, being". The semi-Arians condemned the Anomoeans in the Council of Seleucia, and the Anomoeans condemned the semi-Arians in their turn in the Councils of Constantinople and Antioch; erasing the word from the formula of Rimini and that of Constantinople and protesting that the Word had not only a different s ...

Arrianus (jurist)
Arrianus was a Roman jurisconsult of uncertain date. He probably lived under Trajan, and, according to the conjecture of Grotius, is perhaps the same person as the orator Arrianus, who corresponded with Pliny the Younger. He may also possibly be identical with the Arrianus Severus, '' praefectus aerarii'', whose opinion concerning a constitution ''Divi Trajani'' is cited by Aburnus Valens. He wrote a treatise ''de Interdictis'' of which the second book is quoted in the Pandects in an extract from Ulpian. In that extract, Proculus, who lived under Tiberius, is mentioned in such a manner, that he might be supposed to have written after Arrianus. There is no direct extract from Arrianus in the Pandects The ''Digest'', also known as the Pandects ( la, Digesta seu Pandectae, adapted from grc, πανδέκτης , "all-containing"), is a name given to a compendium or digest of juristic writings on Roman law compiled by order of the Byzantine e ..., though he is several time ...

Arrianus (poet)
Arrianus ( el, Ἀρριανός) was a poet of ancient Greece who, according to the Suda, made a Greek translation in hexameter verse of Virgil's ''Georgics'', and wrote an epic poem on the exploits of Alexander the Great (Ἀλεξανδρίας), as well as a poem on Attalus I. Suda, ''s.v.'' Ἀρριανός Scholars have pointed out that there are some contradictions in this list of accomplishments in the Suda. Perhaps chief among which is that it is not clear how likely it is a poet, who lived in or after the time of Virgil -- that is, the first century CE -- would write a poem on Attalus I -- a political figure from the 3rd century BCE -- as it is assumed the author of the poem was more of a contemporary of Attalus, though scholars have speculated it may be the case that Arrianus was, or wrote the poem for, one of the later descendants of the family of the Attali. It is, however, not improbable that in the Suda, Arrianus is confused with one or more poets with the same or ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Adrianus (poet)
Adrianus (Gr. ) was a Greek poet who wrote an epic poem on the history of Alexander the Great Alexander III of Macedon ( grc, Ἀλέξανδρος, Alexandros; 20/21 July 356 BC – 10/11 June 323 BC), commonly known as Alexander the Great, was a king of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon. He succeeded his father Philip II to ..., which was called the ''Alexandriad'' (). What is chiefly known of this poem comes from a mention of the seventh book in the Suda, but only a fragment consisting of one line survives. The Suda mentions, among other poems, a work by a poet "Arrianus" called ''Alexandriad'' or , and there can be no doubt that this is the work of Adrianus, which is mistakenly attributed to this " Arrianus".

Arrian
Arrian of Nicomedia (; Greek: ''Arrianos''; la, Lucius Flavius Arrianus; ) was a Greek historian, public servant, military commander and philosopher of the Roman period. ''The Anabasis of Alexander'' by Arrian is considered the best source on the campaigns of Alexander the Great. Scholars have generally preferred Arrian to other extant primary sources; though this attitude is beginning to change in light of modern studies into Arrian's method. Arrian's life Arrian was born in Nicomedia (present-day İzmit), the provincial capital of Bithynia. Cassius Dio called him Flavius Arrianus Nicomediensis. In respect of his birth date, sources provide similar dates for his birth; within a few years prior to 90, 89, and 85–90 AD. The line of reasoning for dates belonging to 85–90 AD is from the fact of Arrian being made a consul around 130 AD, and the usual age for this, during this period, being forty-two years of age.
