Description
Excerpt from Gregory the Great, Vol. 1 of 2: His Place in History and Thought
Such are the original authorities which bear directly on the life of Gregory. But besides these I have frequently referred to many others which, more or less indirectly, throw light upon my subject. The works of such authors as Cassiodorus, Evagrius, Procopius, Gregory of Tours, Paul the Deacon, Theophylact, Isidore, and Theophanes, to say nothing of the lesser contemporary chroniclers and biographers and the later Byzantine historians, can of course be neglected by no serious student of this period. Of these writers, however, I need not here supply a complete list; whenever I have had occasion to quote them I have supplied the reference in my notes.
