Luigi Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I'd draw him if I could, but I'm not much of an artist. The only class I took was figure drawing, and Pius V is wearing clothes! What can I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course he was careful to specify that he was reconciled with the real pope sometime before his death. Pontianus, I think. Jurgens' belief seems to be that "Hippolytus' position of anti-pope[b] was literally forgotten at an early date[/b], and Pope St. Damascus I honoured his tomb with an inscription that calls him a follower of Novatian, but recalls that he was a martyr who, before his death, admonished his followers to be reconciled to the Church. A tradition grew up, current as early as St. Jerome, that Hippolytus had been bishop of Porto Romanus, one of the suburban Roman sees." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] As I said, though, I think it's pretty sketchy, and most of the stuff I've read on it seems more like guesswork than anything. Maybe Hippolytus was an anti-pope, but maybe he wasn't.

Maybe Hippolytus was an anti-pope, but maybe he wasn't. [/quote] I suppose it's possible. I trust Jurgens though- it's clear to me that he's a real scholar. If he believes it, I know it's for a reason, and since I've seen no contrary evidence, I stick with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
