AI overview

I don't have specific context provided about Zosimus beyond the single word "pope," which is insufficient to write an accurate 2-sentence overview. To provide a reliable overview, I would need additional context about whether Zosimus was a specific pope, a historical figure, a text, or something else entirely.

Encyclopedic overview

Pope Zosimus was the bishop of Rome from 18 March 417 to his death on 26 December 418. Zosimus took a decided part in the protracted dispute in Gaul as to the jurisdiction of the See of Arles over that of Vienne, giving energetic decisions in favour of the former, but without settling the controversy. His fractious temper coloured all the controversies in which he took part, in Gaul, Africa and Italy, including Rome, where at his death the clergy were very much divided.
