Dear Carlos,
Gregory "the Wonder Worker" (210-260) was a student of Origen and later (240)
bishop of Neocaesarea. His work in praise of his teacher is to be found in
Volume 6 of the Ante-Nicene Fathers. Gregory of Nyssa wrote a biography of
his namesake. Tales of the miracles he performed guarenteed his fame -
whether they were genuine miracles or not - I cannot say. See further
articles in the Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church and the
Encyclopedia of Early Christianity for full bibliography.
Hope that this is useful.
Robert
