JOANNES TALAIA, or TALAIDA.

JOannes Talaia, or Talaida, a Monk of Teb••••ma, was chosen Bishop of Alexandria in 481. Immediately after his Ordination he wrote Letters of Communion to Simplicius Bishop of * 1.1 Rome, and Calendion; but he omitted to write to Acacius Bishop of Constantinople. Acacius being offended at these proceedings, stirred up the Emperor Zeno against him, accusing him as guilty of Perjury, and a Favourer of Hillus; insomuch, that he was forced to fly into Italy a little after his Election. Since he could not return to his own Bishoprick, the Church of Nola was committed to his Care and Government. Photius mentions an Apology, which he wrote to Gelasius Bishop of Rome; in which he condemns not only the Heresie of Pelagius, but also Pe∣lagius Caelestius, and Julian, who succeeded them in that Sect. We have not this Work. It was composed about the Year 492.
