GOZECHINO. — Scholastic of Liège, d. ca. 1059. He wrote a long Epistola ad Valcherum (PL 143, 885-909), to exonerate himself, together with his former disciple, for having abandoned teaching with his retirement to Mainz, pleading the wickedness of the times and the scandal of the heresy of Berengar of Tours (v.), whom he stigmatizes as apostolus Satanae. In it he shows himself a rigid traditionalist, opposed to the "novitates quaestionum," professing a simple and orthodox Eucharistic faith.
