  Photius I of Constantinople - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The way to public life was probably opened for him by the marriage of his brother Sergius to the princess Irene, sister of Theodora, who upon the death of her husband Theophilus in 842, had assumed the regency of the empire.
Photius became the champion of Eastern Christianity against Latin pretensions; and when in 863 Nicholas finally anathematized and deposed him, he replied with a counter-excommunication.
The fall of Photius followed; he was removed from his office and banished about the end of September 867, a few days after the accession of Basil, and Ignatius was reinstated on November 23.

 AllRefer.com - Photius (Roman Catholic And Orthodox Churches: General Biography) - Encyclopedia
Photius was one of the most learned men of his time, a professor in the university at Constantinople and, under Byzantine Emperor Michael III, president of the imperial chancellery.
Although Photius was condemned two years later (see Constantinople, Fourth Council of), he reconciled with Basil and Ignatius, and on the death of Ignatius he again became patriarch (877).
Photius continued as patriarch until the accession of Byzantine Emperor Leo VI in 886, when he was forced to resign under imperial pressure; he died in exile.

Photius was rich; he belonged to a distinguished family; he held a prominent position in public life; and he was already celebrated as one of the most learned men of his time: but he was not a theologian.
A synod was convened in 869; and Photius was not only deposed, but condemned as a liar, adulterer, parricide, and heretic, and shut up in the dungeon of a distant monastery, where he was even deprived of his books.
Whatever verdict may be given on Photius as a church officer, his literary merits, not only in the field of theology, but also in those of philology, canon law, and history of literature, are beyond cavil.

Photius was born at Constantinople, probably between 815 and 820, and died in the Armenian monastery of Bordi Feb. 6, 897 or 898.
Photius, apparently in 865, addressed a long letter to the newly converted Bulgarian Bogoris; but the latter, doubtless for political reasons, turned to the pope, who sent two legates and a number of priests, as well as a voluminous pastoral epistle to the prince.
Photius was very amiable and apparently submissive to "his beloved brother," John, but he obscured the full meaning of his demands, and, remaining in the background himself, spoke in the council through others.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Eastern Schism
The two great breaches, those of Photius and Michael Caerularius, which are remembered as the origin of the present state of things, were both healed up afterwards.
So although the names of Photius and Caerularius are justly associated with this disaster, inasmuch as their quarrels are the chief elements in the story, it must not be imagined that they were the sole, the first, or the last authors of the schism.
When Photius calls the Latins "liars, fighters against God, forerunners of Antichrist", it is no longer a question merely of abusing one's ecclesiastical superiors.

 MSN Encarta - Search View - Photius
Photius (circa 820-91?), patriarch of Constantinople (858-67, 877-86), one of the greatest scholars of the Byzantine Middle Ages.
Born to a noble family in Constantinople (present-day İstanbul), Photius had a brilliant career as a diplomat and scholar before being elected patriarch to replace Ignatius, who was in conflict with the government of Emperor Michael III.
Eventually, Photius and Ignatius were reconciled to each other, and, after Ignatius's death, Photius returned to the patriarchal throne.

 Milton V. Anastos - 16. The Patriarch Photius and his disputes with Rome
Photius was the greatest scholar of his day, and a man of commanding genius.
For the dour Ignatius, the antithesis of the learned and versatile Photius, was the head of the conservative anti-intellectual monastic party that was opposed to the use of logic and philosophy in theological discussion.
At the very beginning of his career Photius had difficulty with Pope Nicholas Ι (858-67), who insisted that Photius's election was invalid and that Ignatius was the only true Patriarch, although papal legates had already confirmed the deposition of Ignatius and the election of Photius at a synod held in Constantinople in 861.

It is for this reason that many Roman Catholic scholars(149) still insist that, despite everything which can be said in his favour, Photius was fundamentally an enemy of the Roman see, and sought to subordinate Rome and the whole of the Church to the partriarchate of Constantinople.
This Roman hostility to Photius stems in part from the assumption that he was the author of a treatise directed against acknowledgment of the primacy of Rome.
Jugie, "Photius et la primauté de Saint Pierre et du Pape," Bessarione, 35 (1919), 121-30; 36 (1920), 16-76, discusses Photius's varying statements on papal primacy, largely on the basis of this treatise.

Nevertheless, a comparison of his summaries with the original texts that have survived reveal that Photius is a generally reliable source (Wilson [1994]).
This seems most likely to have been Aenesidemus' position since Photius' summary begins with the remark that the overall aim of the Pyrrhoneia is to show that there is no firm basis for cognition.
Similarly, Photius reports Aenesidemus' view that those who follow the philosophy of Pyrrho will be happy, whereas by contrast, the dogmatists will wear themselves out in futile and ceaseless theorizing (Bib.

IT is proposed to issue the present translation of the Bibliotheca of Photius in five volumes; a sixth will contain an account of his life and works, a Bibliography, and a General Index to the whole.
Naturally, there is little scope for elegance of translation, and in the literary criticisms it is by no means easy to find a correct and adequate English equivalent for the terms used.
The translation of Photius is of unequal merit, and it is supposed that in parts it is the work of a young and less competent colleague.
