Arsenius Autorianus

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.03 sec.

Arsenius Autorianus (c. 1200-1273)

Patriarch of Constantinople 1255-59 and Nicaea 1255 and 1261-65. He excommunicated the Byzantine emperor Michael VIII in 1265 for blinding John, his ward, the rightful heir to the throne, and was banished to Proconnesus. The new patriarch, Josephus, absolved the emperor 1267, and the quarrel between the Josephists and Arsenites caused the Arsenian schism, which lasted until 1315.

He was educated at a monastery in Nicaea, of which he became archimandrite.
