 If I may offer a word of advice....
 Many of these works are availiable in English translation, some are even
in print. And, besides, I should like to warn you that church history
amateurs will not find hidden treasures in any of them; there are very good
reasons why everybody knows the historia ekklesiastika, and no-one cares
much for any of the above.
 But if the subject has been raised, Who would agree with me that the Vita
Constantini (an absurd travesty of Greek biography, like a cross between
Plutarch, 1&2Kings and TLaOo Tristram Shandy) should be considered an early
(if not the very earliest) example of postmodernism?
