Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Theodore Prodromos or Prodromus (ca. 1100 – ca. 1165/70), probably also the same person as the so-called Ptochoprodromos, was a Byzantine writer, well known for his prose and poetry. Very little is known about his life. Further developing a genre begun by Nicholas Kallikles, he wrote many occasional poems for a widespread circle of patrons at the Byzantine court. Some of the literary pieces attributed to him are unpublished, while still others may be wrongly attributed to him. Even so, there does emerge from these writings the figure of an author in reduced circumstances, with a marked inclination towards begging, who was in close touch with the court circles during the reigns of John II Komnenos (1118–1143) and Manuel I Komnenos (1143–1180).
