| Summary: | Based on the analytic and comparative study of a large documentary collection that frequently raises complex exegetical questions, the information related to Ossius, bishop of Córdoba, is valued, fixed, and duly contextualized until the end of the first oecumenical council. The knowledge of his life, closely linked to the Constantinian policy intending to standardize clerical affairs, allows a better and more accurate understanding of the ecclesiastical history of his time. After specifying his action in the Donatist schism, his relevant interventions carried out in the East, recently subordinated to Constantine, are examined. These interventions, basically inserted in the vast and multifaceted Arian conflict, show that Ossius takes sides with the Alexandrian bishop from the beginning. This one may infer from his stay as imperial commissioner both in Alexandria and Antioch, cities in which he presides over respective synods and accomplish other tasks: it seems revealing the composition (at least partial) by Ossius of the Antiochene synodal letter, which demonstrates the authority he then had. Regarding the general synod summoned by the regent upon verifying the impossible reconciliation between Alexander and Arius, its course and the exalted position that the Hispanic continued to have in it are exposed; and this despite the fact that the president of the assembly was Constantine, whom he would however replace frequently. |
