Life

[edit]

Antony was of undistinguished background, but received a good education, becoming a lawyer inConstantinople in c. 800. He later became a monk and advanced to the position of abbot. By 814, he had become the bishop ofSyllaion inAnatolia. Although Antony was anIconodule, he became anIconoclast in 815, when EmperorLeo V the Armenian reinstituted Iconoclasm. The reason for Antony's change of heart is said to have included his hope for attaining the patriarchate. The emperor appointed him a member of the committee headed by the future PatriarchJohn VII of Constantinople to find patristic support for Iconoclasm. In 821, the new EmperorMichael II appointed Antony patriarch, disappointing themonastery of Stoudios, who were hoping that icons would be restored. When thepatriarch of Antioch crownedThomas the Slav rival emperor, Antony I had him excommunicated in 822. The iconodule historians record that Antony I was stricken with a wasting disease as divine punishment for his participation in Iconoclast councils. The patriarch died early in 837 and was lateranathematised in the Orthodoxsynodika.
