In 498, two clerics, Laurentius and Symmachus, were elected Pope in Rome at the same time. With the mediation of the Gothic king Theoderic, Laurentius initially gives in and Symmachus is confirmed as pope. But this does not resolve the conflict. Various accusations are discussed in a series of synods, that do not yield results. After Symmachus' return, two popes ruled Rome until the king ended the schism in 506 by deposing Laurentius. Nevertheless, there was still considerable resistance in the clergy and senate of Rome until the death of Symmachus in 514. Known as the Laurentian Schism, this church schism in Rome (498 to 506) has received much attention since the late 19th century because of its high significance for the history of the late antique papacy and the history of the Gothic kingdom in Italy. Nevertheless, there is still no consensus even on basic questions. This already concerns the chronology of events. Furthermore, there is a lack of agreement on the causes of the schism, which also extends to the exact subject of the dispute (handling of church property, relationship with the emperor in Byzantium). Finally, the role of the Gothic king is assessed very differently in research. Against the background of this state of research, an annotated translation of the relevant sources must be considered a desideratum of research. The Laurentian Schism has produced a whole series of contemporary testimonies that can be divided into four groups: synodal minutes and acts, papal biographies, a pamphlet and several letters. The project plans to publish an edition of these texts with an introduction, translation and historical commentary in book form. This will clarify open questions and at the same time make the relevant sources available in a handy form for further research.

公元498年，劳伦提乌斯和西马库斯两名神职人员同时在罗马当选教皇。在哥特国王狄奥德里克的调解下，劳伦修斯最初让步，西马库斯被确认为教皇。但这并不能解决冲突。在一系列的主教会议上讨论了各种指控，但没有产生结果。西马库斯回归后，两位教皇统治罗马，直到506年国王废黜劳伦提乌斯，结束了分裂。尽管如此，在西马库斯514年去世之前，罗马的神职人员和元老院中仍然存在相当大的阻力。这场发生在罗马的教会分裂（公元498年至506年）被称为劳伦派（Laurentian Schism），自19世纪末以来受到了广泛关注，因为它对古代晚期教皇的历史和意大利哥特式王国的历史具有重要意义。然而，即使在基本问题上也没有达成共识。这已经涉及到事件的年表。此外，对分裂的原因缺乏共识，这也延伸到争议的确切主题（处理教会财产，与拜占庭皇帝的关系）。最后，哥特国王的角色在研究中被评估得非常不同。在这种研究状态的背景下，对相关资料的注释翻译必须被认为是研究的必要条件。劳伦分裂产生了一系列的当代见证，可以分为四组：会议纪要和行为，教皇传记，小册子和几封信。该项目计划以书籍的形式出版这些文本的一个版本，其中包括介绍、翻译和历史评论。这将澄清悬而未决的问题，同时使相关资料以方便的形式提供给进一步的研究。
