John XVIII

John XVIII

(or XIX, with the surname Fasanus), Pope, succeeded the preceding, and died about 1009. The history of the popes during this period is very obscure, and the chronology confused. He seems to have been on a good footing with the Greek Church, for his name found a place in the great book of the Constantinopolitan Church. See Aschbach, Kirchen-Lex. 3, 521.
