Anthemius of Tralles ( c. 474 – before 558 ; ) was a Greek professor of Geometry in Constantinople ( present-day Istanbul in Turkey ) and architect, who collaborated with Isidore of Miletus to build the church of Hagia Sophia by the order of Justinian I. Anthemius came from an educated family, one of five sons of Stephanus of Tralles, a physician.

The standard theological view of world history at the time was known as the six ages of the world ; in his book, Bede calculated the age of the world for himself, rather than accepting the authority of Isidore of Seville, and came to the conclusion that Christ had been born 3, 952 years after the creation of the world, rather than the figure of over 5, 000 years that was commonly accepted by theologians.

This was based on parts of Isidore of Seville's Etymologies, and Bede also include a chronology of the world which was derived from Eusebius, with some revisions based on Jerome's translation of the bible.

Isidore of Miletus was one of the two main Byzantine Greek architects ( Anthemius of Tralles was the other ) that Emperor Justinian I commissioned to design the church of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople from 532-537A. D.

Isidore of Miletus was a renowned scientist and mathematician before Emperor Justinian I hired him, “ Isidorus taught stereometry and physics at the universities, first of Alexandria then of Constantinople, and wrote a commentary on an older treatise on vaulting .” Emperor Justinian I appointed his architects to rebuild the Hagia Sophia following his victory over protesters within the capital city of his Roman Empire, Constantinople.

Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles originally planned on a main hall of the Hagia Sophia that measured 230 feet by 250 feet, making it the largest church in Constantinople, but the original dome was nearly 20 feet lower than it was constructed, “ Justinian suppressed these riots and took the opportunity of marking his victory by erecting in 532-7 the new Hagia Sophia, one of the largest, most lavish, and most expensive buildings of all time .” Although Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles were not formally educated in architecture, they were scientists that could organize the logistics of drawing thousands of laborers and unprecedented loads of rare raw materials from around the Roman Empire to create the Hagia Sophia for Emperor Justinian I.

Isidore was born probably in Cartagena, Spain to Severianus and Theodora, members of an influential family who were instrumental in the political-religious maneuverering that converted the Visigothic kings from Arianism to Catholicism.

Isidore was the first Christian writer to essay the task of compiling for his co-religionists a summa of universal knowledge, in the form of his most important work, the Etymologiae ( taking its title from the method he uncritically used in the transcription of his era's knowledge ).

In the process, many fragments of classical learning are preserved which otherwise would have been hopelessly lost ; " in fact, in the majority of his works, including the Origines, he contributes little more than the mortar which connects excerpts from other authors, as if he was aware of his deficiencies and had more confidence in the stilus maiorum than his own " his translator Katherine Nell MacFarlane remarks ; on the other hand, some of these fragments were lost in the first place because Isidore ’ s work was so highly regarded — Braulio called it quecunque fere sciri debentur, " practically everything that it is necessary to know "— that it superseded the use of many individual works of the classics themselves, which were not recopied and have therefore been lost: " all secular knowledge that was of use to the Christian scholar had been winnowed out and contained in one handy volume ; the scholar need search no further ".

Isidore was interred in Seville.

Papyrus was made in several qualities and prices ; these are listed, with minor differences, both by Pliny and Isidore of Seville.

Saint Isidore of Seville, one of the greatest scholars of the early Middle Ages, is widely recognized as being the author of the first known encyclopedia of the Middle Ages, the Etymologiae or Origines ( around 630 ), in which he compiled a sizable portion of the learning available at his time, both ancient and modern.

Isidore of Seville explains that the quadriga represents the sun's course through the four seasons, while the biga represents the moon, " because it travels on a twin course with the sun, or because it is visible both by day and by night — for they yoke together one black horse and one white.

Isidore of Seville says that there are two ianuae coeli, one rising ( that is, in the East ) and one setting ( the West ): " The sun advances from the one gate, by the other he recedes.

In Book III in one section Isidore states " At the same time sun rises it appears equally to a person in the east as a person in the west ", implying that it is flat.

It is one of three major Latin dictionaries preserved from antiquity, along with that of Festus, which was an epitome of Verrius Flaccus ' work De verborum significatu, and the Etymologiae of Isidore of Seville.

Early one morning, Saint Isidore, abbot of the monastery, took Moses to the roof and together they watched the first rays of dawn come over the horizon.

The children's subsequent public careers reflect their distinguished origin: Leander and Isidore both became bishops of Seville, and their sister Saint Florentina was an abbess who directed forty convents and one thousand nuns.

Reccopolis in the province of Guadalajara is one: the others were Victoriacum, founded by Leovigild, which may survive as the city of Vitoria, though a 12th-century ( re ) foundation for this city is given in contemporary sources ; Lugo id est Luceo in the Asturias, referred to by Isidore of Seville, and Ologicus ( perhaps Ologitis ), founded using Basque labour in 621 by Suinthila as a fortification against the Basques, modern Olite.

Saint Isidore of Seville ( Spanish: or, Latin: ) ( c. 560 – 4 April 636 ) served as Archbishop of Seville for more than three decades and is considered, as the historian Montalembert put it in an oft-quoted phrase, " the last scholar of the ancient world ".

Ambrose ( d. 397 ) identified them with the Goths, and Isidore of Seville confirmed that people in his day supposed that the Goths were descended from Magog " because of the similarity of the last syllable ".

Called “ the last scholar of the ancient world ”, St. Isidore penned theological and proto-scientific treatises, letters, and a series of histories that would serve as models for the rest of Western Europe throughout the Middle Ages.

Jacobs became Moral Tutor at Jews ' College, London, where he taught Talmud and homiletics during the last years of Rabbi Dr. Isidore Epstein's tenure as principal.

Jordanes ' Getica ( 551 ) mentions Magog as ancestor of the Goths, as does the Historia Brittonum, but Isidore of Seville ( c. 635 ) asserts that this identification was popular " because of the similarity of the last syllable " ( Etymologiae, IX, 89 ).
