		In 1781 Ignatius Giarve, Jacobite Bishop of Aleppo, was elected canonically Patriarch of Antioch.
		On the other hand, the existence of several Catholic patriarchs of the same see, for instance, the Melchite, Jacobite, Maronite, and Latin titulars of Antioch, is a concession to the national feeling of Eastern Christians, or, in the case of the Latin, a relic of the crusades that archæologically can hardly be justified.

	A History of the General Councils - AD 325 through AD 1870 - Mgr. Philip Hughes
		The patriarch of Constantinople was forced out, for standing by the tradition, and in his place a married layman was installed- -an unheard-of novelty.
		The outcome was a second council at Constantinople, to which 383 bishops came, with Photius as the central figure--but where he presided, and to which the presence of three papal legates gave the full outward sign of the pope's approval.
		The remnants of anti-Photians, at Constantinople and elsewhere, were now told by the pope that he was their lawful patriarch, and that they were not to oppose him in the name of the council of 869, for the former things had passed away.

	[MGSA-L] A footnote [Laments for the Fall of the City]
		An anonymous Greek poem, in political verses, under the title of Capture of Constantinople (Alwsis Kwnstaninoupolews) is misnamed, for it touches only incidentally on the facts of the siege and is in this respect of little historical importance.
		The work was first edited by Ellissen in vol.iii of his Analekten (1857) with introduction, translation, and analysis under the title Dirge of Constantinople (Thrhnos Kwnstantinopolews)- a misnomer, for it is not a dirge but a tearful appeal.
		A Slavonic account, written probably by a Slav of some of the Balkan countries, is also preserved, and has been published by Sreznevski under the title Skazaniia o vziatii Tsargrade bezbozhnym turetskym sultanom, in the Zapiski of the 2nd Division of the St. Petersburg Academy of Science, vol.i.

	Patriarch and Patriarchate
		As a Christian title of honour the word patriarch appears first as applied to Pope Leo I in a letter of Theodosius II (408-50; Mansi, VI, 68).
		Eventually a Latin patriarchate was established rather to complete what had been done in other cases than for any practical reason.
		But a real patriarch cannot be subject to another patriarch; no patriarch can have another under his patriarchal jurisdiction, just as a diocesan ordinary cannot have another ordinary in his diocese.

	Adrian II Constantinople-4
		John VIII wrote to the patriarch Photius (in 879): We make void that synod which was held against Photius at Constantinople and we have completely blotted it out for various reasons as well as for the fact that Pope Hadrian did not sign its acts".
		Photius did this in such a way that as a result all the existing bishops and priests, that is, the other patriarchal sees and all the clerics within them, were included in the same anathema, for all were most certainly in communion with the leading bishop, and amongst them himself and his followers.
		However, if the patriarch of Constantinople and his suffragan bishops come to know of any others who have committed crimes of this kind and neglect to act against them with the necessary zeal, they must be deposed and debarred from the dignity of their priesthood.

		Without attempting to consider the complex historical question of the title of patriarch in all its aspects, from the historical perspective it can be affirmed that the ancient patriarchs of the East, defined by the Councils of Constantinople (381) and of Chalcedon (451), covered a fairly demarcated territory.
		Without using the title "Patriarch of the West," the Fourth Council of Constantinople (869-870), the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) and the Council of Florence (1439) listed the Pope as the first of the then five Patriarchs.
