Are there any primary source documents about Pope Gregory I?

Answer 1

Roman Catholic AnswerPope Gregory I, usually known as Pope Gregory the Great, lived in the later half of the sixth century and into the seventh. There are numerous letters of his recorded, and his most famous work was the Dialogues, primarily as in book two of the Dialogues he refers to the life and work of St. Benedict, who found the monastic order, the Order of St. Benedict, of which Pope Gregory was a member. The Dialogues is the only source we have for the life of St. Benedict as the only surviving writing of his was the Rule.
