Mazaris

Byzantine writer · Writers

Mazaris was a late Byzantine Greek writer known only for having authored a satirical text entitled "Mazaris' Journey to Hades".

Mazaris is read about 2 times a day, in 9 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 5 August 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.

About this person

Although his identity and first name are unknown, Mazaris has been tentatively identified with at least two known historical personalities of the same name, one Manuel Mazaris, who was a hymnographer and served as protonotarios of Thessaloniki, and one Maximus Mazaris, who was a monk and author of a text on grammatical rules. According to yet another hypothesis however, these two were actually the same person. Because of this uncertainty, the author of the work is mostly referred to simply by his family name.
