It was part of a larger Three-Chapter Controversy that affected the whole of orthodox Christianity.

““Summer, you are the eucharist of death;
Partake of you and never again
Will midnight foot it steeply into dawn,
Dawn veer into day,
Nor the praised schism be of year split off year....””

—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
