Socrates of Constantinople (c. 380 – after 439), also known as Socrates Scholasticus (Greek: Σωκράτης ὁ Σχολαστικός[1]), was a 5th-century Greek Christian church historian, a contemporary of Sozomen and Theodoret.[2]
He is the author of a Historia Ecclesiastica ("Church History", Ἐκκλησιαστική Ἱστορία) which covers the history of late ancient Christianity during the years 305 to 439.

ISBN 0-472-10737-2. On the title pages of some surviving manuscripts he is designated scholastikos ("schooled").
