AB  - Solving the papal schism at the Council of Constance and conciliarism itself, were the most exciting moments of the Church history of the 15th century. This text is dedicated to the rather late period of conciliarism during the pontificate of the Pope Eugene IV (pont. 1431-1447). The conflict between advocates of the supremacy of the papacy and their conciliaristic opponents interfered into many places and all levels of the society. The text represents the case study describing the conflict inside the hermitage of Camaldolese order in Camaldoli between years 1431-1434. Using the travel diary written by general superior of Camaldolese Ambrogio Traversari, who stood firmly on the side of the Pope, it is possible to trace the growing conflict of Travesari with the Camaldolese hermit John Jerome of Prague. John Jerome had been supporter of conciliarism and he participated in the councils of Pisa and Sienna and in particular of Basel. Text by Traversari illustrates his efforts to strengthen the power of the general superior of Camaldolese and to deal with all of the opponents - especially with the opponents of the Pope. Hodoeporicon by Ambrogio Traversari was used as the basic source for this article. Hodoeporicon itself was recently translated and published by the author of this text.
