on the plate
Revisiting and expanding this project for the summer.
Books to hang on to:
Gregory the Great and His World by R. A. Markus (Cambridge 1997)
The late Latin vocabulary of the Moralia of Saint Gregory the Great: A morphological and semasiological study (Catholic University of America. Studies in medieval and renaissance Latin) by Rose Marie Hauber (1938)
Source Book of Self-Discipline: A Synthesis of Moralia in Job by Gregory the Great : A Translation of Peter of Waltham's Remediarium Conversorum by Joseph Gildea (Peter Lang Publishing, 1991)
The Spirit of Early Christian Thought: Seeking the Face of God by Robert Wilken (Yale, 2003)
Does anyone have any suggestions for books that like an introduction to/overview of early medieval theology...like Gregory and the following couple of centuries? or of an English translation of his Moralia in Job?
Comments

Fathers" (4 vols., Oxford, 1844). (I'm not sure if this contains the

references.)

of vol.'s 2 & 3.
