Fifth century French monk / priest best-known for describing the Catholic faith as what has been believed "everywhere, at all times, and by all." (quod ubique, quod semper, quod ab omnibus creditum est)

I'm interested in how his fortunes have changed throughout history. The Middle Ages largely ignored him; several Reformers cited him; he was cited by the bishops of the First Vatican Council but deliberately *not* cited by those of the Second, and has since become a frequent reference for Catholics who disapprove of Vatican II and especially the Novus Ordo Mass that came of it.

Anyone else interested in this guy, or with changing views of development / progress in Church history?
