Rich in captivating narratives, the four books of Dialogues of
Gregory the Great (Pope, 590-604) present hagiographical accounts
of the lives of Italian saints whose holiness remained intact
during tumultuous times. Of these, the most famous is the monastic
founder Benedict, whose life story occupies all of Book Two. These
stories, along with Book Four's mixture of expository and narrative
assurances of the immortality of the soul, must have been
encouraging to its contemporary Italian readers, especially since
Gregory wrote these books at a time when Italy had been ravaged by
barbarian invasions, floods, plagues, and famines.
