medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Vitalian (d. 672) Vitalian was a Campanian, elected pope in 657. It's unclear to me why he's regarded as a saint---except for the useful fact that he sent SS. Theodore of Tarsus and Hadrian to England. Perhaps because of his firm but tactful adherence to duothelite (i.e. orthodox) Christology during the monothelite controversy. And what he did for the English Church is no small matter.
