520 |a Elements of Zacharias Scholasticus' Life of Severus are often used selectively to document pagan-Christian religious interactions in late antiquity, but the text itself is poorly understood. This is particularly problematic for a thirty-page section of the biography in which Severus goes unmentioned and much detail is given about the conversion of a young pagan student named Paralius. Zacharias' habitual republication of earlier works suggests that this segment of the Life of Severus was originally published separately to perform a specific, protreptic function for Christian students of the 490s. When he reused this text in the Life of Severus, Zacharias placed this specific narrative in a broader context designed to respond to attacks on Severus. Nevertheless, modern historians of religion need to use the information contained in this section of the Life of Severus with a full awareness of its original, rather limited, polemic intent.
