What made Pope Gregory I "great"? If the Middle Ages had no
difficulty recognizing Gregory as one of its most authoritative
points of reference, modern readers have not always found this
question as easy to answer. As with any great figure, however,
there are two sides to Gregory - the historical and the universal.
The contributors to this handbook look at Gregory's "greatness"
from both of these angles: what made Gregory stand out among his
contemporaries; and what is unique about Gregory's contribution
through his many written works to the development of human thought
and described human experience. Contributors include: Jane Baun,
Philip Booth, Matthew Dal Santo, Scott DeGregorio, George E.
Demacopoulos, Bernard Green, Ann Kuzdale, Stephen Lake, Andrew
Louth, Constant J. Mews, John Moorhead, Barbara Muller, Bronwen
Neil, Richard M. Pollard, Claire Renkin, Cristina Ricci, and Carole
Straw.

members of the high IQ society Mensa, remembers bygone worlds and
considers the nature of travel memories, the pros and cons of
travelling alone and the effects of tourists on the places they
visit. TRAVELS WITH MENSANS -- travel writing to make you think.
