| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Dioscurus |
 | | When Stephen, Bishop of Ephesus, wished to give Communion to Flavian's slergy, he was attacked by soldiers and monks of Eutyches, 300 in number, who cried out that Stephen was the enemy of the emperor, since he received the emperor's enemies. |
 | | Eutyches was admitted to defend himself, but the other side was only so far heard that the Acts of the council which had condemned him were read in full. |
 | | The older historians, who wrote before the discovery of the Syriac Acts, are antiquated as regards Dioscurus, including Hefele (but we await the next volume of the new French edition by Leclercq), and Bright, with the exception of his posthumous The Age of the Fathers (London, 1903). |
