Who was pope in 475?
Pope Leo I, who is also known as St. Leo the Great by Catholics, was Bishop of Rome and thus Pope from 440 to 461. Leo strengthened the central authority of the Bishop of Rome in the early church, and is famous for going out to meet Attila the Hun to convince him not to invade and plunder Rome. In 451, he sent a letter, known as the Tome, to the Council of Chalcedon. When the letter was read to the bishops in attendance, they are recorded as proclaiming "Peter has spoken through Leo". This was perhaps the first public expression of what is now called the "Petrine authority" of the pope as successor of St. Peter.

Why was Pope Leo III important?
Pope Leo X (pontiff from 9 March 1513 to 1 December 1521) is most famous for being the pontiff at the time of Martin Luther's display of the 95 Theses. He was also the last pope to be elected to office not having been previously a member of the clergy. At the time of Luther's proclamation, Leo did not fully understand the effect of the action. After condemning 41 of Luther's teachings in a papal bull, which Luther burned after receiving a copy, Leo issued an excommunication of Luther in another papal bull on 3 January 1521. Leo also bestowed upon King Henry VIII of England the title of "Defender of the Faith," for condemning the works of Luther himself. Henry would later be excommunicated himself for disobeying the Pope (Clement VII), and his daughter Queen Elizabeth I would embrace the theology of Luther.
