Historiae Ecclesiasticae Tripartitae Epitome, the abridged history (in twelve books) of the early
Medieval Europe
.
The work, dated to around 550 AD, consists of a compilation of church histories, parts of which were selected by
Monasterium Vivariense, the monastery of Vivarium on his family estates at the foot of Mount Moscius on the shores of the Ionian Sea. It is now thought to have been composed several decades later, in Constantinople, around the time the crisis in relations between Justinian and the Western Church, around 550 AD.[1]
It describes a history of the Church from the year 324 to the year 439.[2]
The book attained a high reputation. Only Eusebius' History, in a Latin translation by Rufinus, competed with it as the official version of church history in the West, until original sources began to be rediscovered, edited and printed by humanist scholars in the 15th century.[citation needed]
