	Patriarch Photius I of Constantinople - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The way to public life was probably opened for him by the marriage of his brother Sergius to the princess Irene, sister of Theodora, who upon the death of her husband Theophilus in 842, had assumed the regency of the empire.
		Photius became the champion of Eastern Christianity against Latin pretensions; and when in 863 Nicholas finally anathematized and deposed him, he replied with a counter-excommunication.
		The fall of Photius followed; he was removed from his office and banished about the end of September 867, a few days after the accession of Basil, and Ignatius was reinstated on November 23.

	JÎ¿hn Î. Karmiris - The Schism of the Roman Church - Chapter II
		Towards this end, Photius issued his famous encyclical in the year 866(29) with the approval of the resident synod of Constantinople(30), entitled Â«to the hierarchal thrones of the EastÂ»(31), in which the heterodox teachings and anti-canonical acts of Rome and her Pope Nicholas Î are denounced with force rarely expressed and with orthodox zeal(32).
		Accordingly, Photius, who for centuries was misinterpreted and slandered by fanatic heterodox theologians and historians, was not the Â«father of the schismÂ», but rather the pioneer and apostle of the reconciliation and union of the two Churches(66), whose unity was troubled by Rome.
		The Patriarch Photius was duly and sincerely reconciled with Pope John VIII, and the Council of 879 - 880 officially sanctioned this reconciliation.

		Photius did this in such a way that as a result all the existing bishops and priests, that is, the other patriarchal sees and all the clerics within them, were included in the same anathema, for all were most certainly in communion with the leading bishop, and amongst them himself and his followers.
		As for the churches which Photius and those who were ordained by him are thought to have consecrated and the altars which they are thought to have renovated after they had been torn down, we decree that they are to be consecrated, anointed and renovated again.
		However, if the patriarch of Constantinople and his suffragan bishops come to know of any others who have committed crimes of this kind and neglect to act against them with the necessary zeal, they must be deposed and debarred from the dignity of their priesthood.

	HISTORY OF THE BYZANTINE GRECO-SLAV SCHISM
		Two Councils were then held in Constantinople (the 8th Ecumenical Council in 869 A.D. which condemned and deposed Photius as Patriarch) and the Council of 879-880 A.D. which rehabilitated Photius with the consent of Pope John VIII who sought to restore peace and unity among the Byzantines.
		Though the Byzantine Greco-Slav Schism did not finalize with the Patriarch Photius or even later with the Patriarch Michael Cerularius in 1054, Photius' attacks on latin liturgical practices and discipline and, more grave, his doctrine denying that the Holy Spirit proceeded from the Father and the Son were to spread among the Byzantines.
		When the Crusaders set up their chosen Patriarch for the See of Antioch in 1100 A.D., with Constantinople and the Greeks supporting a rival Patriarch in exile, a schism was created between Latins and Greeks which would spread as rival hierarchies resulted from the further establishment of a Latin Empire in the East.

		Even if Photius had composed this profession during his first patriarchate, there is no reason not to suppose that he used this formula also after the council of 879-880.
		We shall see presently that Photius was primarily interested in the ecumenicity of the seventh council and wished that it should be solemnly proclaimed by the representatives of all the patriarchs.

	Patriarch of Constantinople (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The authority of the Patriarch of Constantinople was motivated in a formal fashion by the fact that he was the Bishop of the "New Rome," where the emperor and the senate also resided (canon 28 of the Council of Chalcedon, 451).
		In the area of faith and doctrine, the emperors could never impose their will when it contradicted the conscience of the Church: this fact, shown in particular during the numerous attempts at union with Rome during the late medieval period, proves that the notion of caesaropapism is not unreservedly applicable to Byzantium.
		Without the military backing of a strong empire, the Patriarchate of Constantinople was, of course, unable to assert its jurisdiction over the Churches of Bulgaria and Serbia, which had gained independence during the days of the Latin occupation.

		Photius was born in Constantinople in the first decade of the ninth century.
		It is, however, to be borne in mind that the object of the work was to mention only those books which had been read in the circle to which he and his brother belonged, during the absence of the latter; that it was hastily prepared, and was to have been followed by a second.
		The first is a history of the old and new Manichaeans, written during Photius’ first patriarchate, and apparently largely borrowed from a contemporary author; the remaining three are polemical treatises upon the new Manichaeans, in which biblical rather than philosophical arguments are relied upon, and mostly those which had already been used against the Manichaeans.
