Sažetak
The author of this article sets out to present one of the most important Christological controversies, which involved several protagonists but concentrated on Cyril, the Patriarch of Alexandria, and Nestorius, the Patriarch of Constantinople. The controversy led to the convening of Councils in Ephesus (431) and Chalcedon (451). In the first section, the author presents the Christological controversy between Cyril and Nestorius by analyzing the letters they sent to each other. The second section deals with the period from the eve of the Council of Ephesus to the eve of the Council of Chalcedon. The first condemnation of Nestorius in Rome occurred during this period, and was confirmed at the Council of Ephesus. This led to a schism between Alexandria and Antioch, which was ended by the Formula of Union compromise. Since some groups around Cyril did not accept this compromise, Cyril was obliged to offer an explanation through the Letters to Succensus, but these extreme groups had already started to open the second part of the controversy that would emerge in the actual Monophysitism that was first recognized by Theodoret of Cyrus. Pope Leo was involved in this controversy, resulting in the convening of the Council of Chalcedon, which resulted in terminological clarity and the Definition of Faith in the one person of Jesus Christ and two natures.
