. Student of Hypatia (see above) and her devoted disciple. Christian Bishop of Ptolemais, 410-414.  Synesius was earlier in Athens and Constantinople.  His letters to Hypatia show a deep interest in science and invention, and a profound affection for Hypatia.  One of this last letters to Hypatia, written in 413, reproaches her for not writing to him, and avers that, if she had, he would be “rejoicing at your happiness”.  Whether or not his feelings for Hypatia were carnal, and whether or not they were consummated, is unknown.
