The Fourth Ecumenical Council and the Issue of the Primacy of the Bishop of Rome

The Emergence and Further Development of the Idea of Papal Primacy
The author analyses how the idea of the papal primacy was formed and developed, papal primacy meaning the particular way in which the place of the bishop of Rome was conceived within the Universal Church. The period in question began with the second century and the emergence of a tradition regarding Peter’s martyrdom in Rome and continued through the papacy of Leo I (440–461). It was Leo who summed up the idea of an exclusive ministry of the Roma…
