9780853231158: Gregory of Tours: Life of the Fathers (Translated Texts for Historians-Latin Series, No I) (English and Latin Edition)

Synopsis

This series is designed to meet the needs of students of ancient and medieval history and others who wish to broaden their study by reading source material, but whose Latin and Greek is not sufficent to allow them to do so in the original language. "Life of the Fathers" consists of a collection of 20 lives of saints, mostly clerics who belonged to Gregory of Tours' own family or to the dioceses of Clermont and Tours. These bishops, abbots, and hermits present a cross-section of the Gallic Church, a counterpart to the secular society described in the "History of the Franks".
