Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other people Aristocritus (Шаблон:Lang-grc) was a Christian, Platonist writer of the fifth century who was the author of a work titled Theosophy, ostensibly about oracles, but in which he expressed a controversial syncretic belief that Christianity, Judaism, and Manichaeism were all basically the same.[1][2] This belief caused him to be condemned by Zacharias Rhetor as well as in various later Byzantine texts.[3] He is known to us primarily by his mention in a list of medieval anathemas, written around the year 1000, known as the Long Anathema, primarily aimed at Manichaeans. His identification as a Manichaean is however considered somewhat dubious, as he was known to write uncharitable things about Mani himself.[4]

Theosophy is a lost work, though some scholars have identified this with the so-called Tübingen Theosophy.[5] Other scholars disagree that these are the same works.[2][3]
