Euthymius Zigabenus
Euthymius Zigabenus or Zigadenus or Zygadenus ( or Ζυγαδηνός; died after 1118) was a 12th-century monk and commentator on the Bible. He was a friend of the Byzantine emperor Alexius I Comnenus, for whom he wrote a lengthy work on heresies, ''Panoplia Dogmatica'' or '' Panoply of Doctrine'' (or "Full Armour of Belief"). This began in the apostolic era and continued down to the Bogomils, some of whom he personally examined. The entry on the Bogomils is our main source of information about them. Nothing is known about his life. He was a monk and lived in the monastery of the Virgin Mary near Constantinople. He was favoured by both the emperor and his daughter Anna Comnena, who extols his learning and piety in her ''Alexiad''. He also wrote a commentary on the Psalms, one on the four gospels, and one on the Pauline epistles. These are based mainly on patristic sources.

William Seguier
William Seguier ( ; 9 November 1772 – 5 November 1843) was a British art dealer, painter, and official functionary in the art world. He was the first Keeper of the National Gallery, London. Early life Seguier was born in the parish of St Martin-in-the-Fields in London, the descendant of French Huguenot refugees. Many of his relatives were involved in the arts on a professional level, from his father David, a picture dealer, to his uncle on the paternal side, the sculptor Peter Seguier. Career Initially Seguier worked as an artist; he may have been taught by George Morland and perhaps even William Blake. However, his marriage to Anne Magdalene Clowden (a fellow Huguenot), gave him the independent means to establish a dealership, and he largely gave up painting thereafter. The business, in which his brother also worked, also offered picture-cleaning and restoring services, a useful way of getting to know collectors. From 1806, when Lord Grosvenor consulted him on the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
