(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Not illustrated. 1905 Excerpt: ... that they may become more wisely foolish, that they may abandon their foolish wisdom, and learn the wise foolishness of God; but to these we must preach that they pass over as from a nearer point, from that which is accounted folly to true wisdom. The one, for the most part, are converted by arguments of reasoning, the other better sometimes by examples. To the one doubtless it is profitable to fall beaten in their own disputations; but for the other it ofttimes sufficeth to know the praiseworthy deeds of others. Whence also the consummate teacher, 'a debtor to the wise and to the unwise,' when he was admonishing some of the Hebrews that were wise and some that were slower,--speaking to the former concerning the fulfilment of the Old Testament, overcame their wisdom by argument, saying, Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away. But since he saw that some were to be drawn to him simply by examples, he added in the same Epistle: Remember them which have the ride over you, wlw have spoken unto you the word of God; whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation--in order that conquering reason might 1 Beg. Past. iii. 6. subdue the one, and gentle imitation might persuade the other to mount to greater things." The preacher's difficulty, says Gregory, is to address a large, mixed congregation in such a way that his words may encourage the virtues of each one of his hearers without giving any countenance to the vices that are contrary to such virtues--for instance, to preach humility to the proud without increasing the terror of the timid, or liberality to the niggardly without encouraging the liberal to be prodigal. It is hard to make a single oration suitable to the wants of many hearers, diversely constituted.1 Yet it ...

Excerpt from Gregory the Great, Vol. 1 of 2: His Place in History and Thought Though painfully conscious of the many imperfection of the study of Pope Gregory and his times which I now offer to the public, I cannot but feel that the attempt itself to give some detailed account of the most remarkable man of a remarkable age needs no apology. Gregory the Great is certainly one of the most notable figures in ecclesiastical history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Pope Gregory and his times which I now offer to the public, I cannot but feel that the attempt itself to give some detailed account of the most remarkable man of a remark able age lneeds no apology. Gregory the Great is certainly one of the most notable figures in ecclesiastical history. He has exercised in many respects a momentous influence on the doctrine, the organization, and the discipline of the Catholic 1G regorovius (R ome in the Middk A ges ii. 70) writes: The sixth century is one of the most memorable in history. In it mankind experienced the overthrow of a great and ancient civilization, and on this account believed that the end of the world had come. A thick cloud of barbarism, as it were of dust arising from the crash, hung over the Roman Empire devastated through out its length and breadth by the destroying angel, dealing pestilence and other ills. The world entered upon a turning-point in its development. Upon the ruins of the ancient Empire, amid which the Goths, premature heralds of Germany, had perished, fresh forms of national life now slowly arose; in I taly, through the instrumentality of the Lombards; in Gaul, through that of the Pranks; in Spain, by means of the Visigoths; in Britain, by those of the Saxons. The Catholic Church everywhere constituted itself the vital principle of these growing nations. To the Church they turned as to a centre, and, through the conquest of A rianism, the Church by degrees drew them together in a union which was destined, sooner or later, to give political form to a new Western Empire. These events took place at a time when the East was stirred by a like impulse of development; when Mohammed had appeared to found a new religion, which, uniting nations on the Eastern ruins of the Roman dominion, forced the Byzantine Empire first to return to I taly, and then for centuries to be the bulwark of Hellenic cu (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
