迷人历史
Otto remained in Rome for several years, ensuring Leo VIII's transition went smoothly and that none of the same predilection for sinning plagued the new pope.
Pope Leo VIII (died 1 March 965) was Pope from 23 June 964 to his death in 965; before that, he was an antipope from 963 to 964, in opposition to Pope John XII and Pope Benedict V. An appointee of the Holy Roman Emperor, Otto I, his pontificate occurred during the period known as the Saeculum obscurum.
