Philostorgius

Philostorgius (368-439) was a scholar of Late Antiquity who subscribed to Arianism, a heresy that questioned the Trinitarian account of the relationship between God the Father and Christ. Very little information about his life is available; he was born in Borissus, Cappadocia and later lived in Constantinople. He wrote a history of the Arian schism titled History of the Church. The work is lost, but an epitome of it by Photius survives.
