schism
schism Split or division within a Church, sect, or other religious organization, or a breakaway from a Church. Before the Protestant
Reformation, there were two other important schisms within Christianity. The first was the split between the Eastern
Orthodox Church, and the Western (
Roman Catholic) Church, brought about by the two churches drifting apart over centuries, and by an escalating series of disputes culminating in a complete break in 1054. The so-called
Great Schism occurred in the 14th and 15th centuries, and involved a split within the Roman Catholic Church itself. Various reasons, including civil war in Italy, led to the papacy transferring to
Avignon, France, from 1309 to 1377. Rivalry grew between Avignon and Rome, with rival popes elected from 1378 to 1417. The schism was eventually resolved by the Council of
Constance (1417).
