He was linked to the court of Constantine IX Monomachos and was then metropolitan bishop of Euchaïta. After the battle of Manzikert, he entered the monastery of Prodromos Petra in Constantinople as a monk; there he probably died after 1082. He wrote speeches, poems in prosodic dodecasyllables, epistles and hymns. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book presents the critical edition of Ioannes’ poetic production (106 poems from MS Vat.
