Description
Summary:This volume concludes the valuable set of volumes of Socrates (cf. JTS, ns 56 [2005], pp. 687–8; 57 [2006], pp. 328–9; 58 [2007], pp. 728–9). The text remains that of Hansen in GCS, nf, 1, with only the slightest preferences expressed against him, as at p. 56 foot and n. 1, and p. 154, line 1, with footnote; in both places I think Hansen wins. The history peters out, though deliberately ended, in ad 438. Book 7 contains more public affairs and personal reminiscence than some others, and is very much focused on Constantinople. Maraval's brief introduction points out the main features. Socrates approves of moderation, whether of the emperor Theodosius II, or the bishops Atticus and Proclus.
