Abstract
International audience From antiquity to the present day, the Pope has been the bishop of Rome. The meaning of the phrase may have changed, reflecting the evolutions that have affected the authority of the successor of Peter at the head of the College of Bishops and leading to an ordinary, full and universal power. The first and second Vatican councils occurred in very distinct ecclesiological contexts.
