Life

[edit]

Eulogius was firstigumen of the monastery of the Mother of God in Antioch.[1]He was a successful combatant of various phases ofMonophysitism.[2] He was a warm friend of PopeGregory the Great, who corresponded with him, and received from that pope many flattering expressions of esteem and admiration.[3][4]

Eulogius refuted theNovatians, some communities of which ancient sect still existed in his diocese, and vindicated the hypostatic union of the two natures in Christ, against bothNestorius andEutyches.Cardinal Baronius says that Gregory wished Eulogius to survive him, recognizing in him the voice of truth.[2]

It has been said that he restored for a brief period to the Church of Alexandria life and youthful vigour.[3]

Besides the above works and a commentary against various sects of Monophysites (Severans,Theodosians,Gaianites andAcephali) he left eleven discourses in defence ofPope Leo I and theCouncil of Chalcedon, also a work against theAgnoetae, submitted by him before publication to Pope Gregory I, who after some observations authorized it unchanged. With exception of one sermon and a few fragments, all the writings of Eulogius have perished.[3]
