Nicetas MARONITA
7. MARONITA, chartophylax, and afterwards archbishop of Thessalonica, lived about 1200, and showed himself well disposed towards the contemplated union of the Greek and Latin churches. He wrote: 1. De Processione Spiritus Sancti Dialogorum Libri VIII., in which he introduces a Greek and a Latin discussing the above subject. Leo Allatius (Contra Hottinger. 100.19) gives some fragments of it. 2. Responsio ad Interrogationes Busilii Monachi, Graec. et Lat. in Leunclavius, Jus Graeco-Ron. 3. Responsio ad Interrogationes de diversis Casibus Ecclesiast., ibid. 4. De Miraculis S. Demetrii Martyris, extant in the Bodleian. 5. Expositio Canonum s. Canticorum S. Joan. Damasceni, extant in MS. in Vienna. He also wrote some minor works. (Cave, Hist. Liter. ad an. 1201.)
