The evidence of the Dioptra [Elektronische Daten] [Apostolos Karpozilos] The last years of Michael Psellos' life are clouded in obscurity. He was certainly active at the court of his student Michael VII (1071-1078), but when Nikephoritzes, the logothetes tou dromou, became imperial advisor (Attaleiates, Historia, 200,12ff) he practically disappeared from the scene. One of the last chronological references found in his Chronographia is the death of Crispinus in 1075 (VII, b 39, 3-4). In that year he also wrote a description of the "usual miracle” which occurred regularly in the church of Blachernai and somewhat later a funeral oration for Patriarch Ioannes Xiphilinos. Among his writings survives another funeral oration which he dedicated to the young Andronikos Doukas. This work is transmitted only in part by cod. Parisinus gr. 1182 and is dated in 1076. From that point on, practically nothing is known about his subsequent life. © 2003 by K. G. Saur Verlag GmbH, München und Leipzig Byzantinische Zeitschrift Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co.
