Studios Monastery
A celebrated monastery at Constantinople that took its name from Studios, its founder, and from its devotion to the study of sacred Letters and a more perfect life. St. Plato presided over it; after him Theodore the Studite governed it around the year 800, contending with the Iconoclast emperors Constantine Copronymus and Leo the Isaurian.
