This book condenses and updates the author's two-volume work, The Pseudo-Gregorian Dialogues (Brill, 1987), surveying and clarifying the controversy which that work rekindled.

It makes an essential contribution to the current reassessment of early Benedictine history. It also throws much new light on the life and times of St. Gregory,...

WHY THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN

There are two kinds of books. One kind couldn't be helped. The other kind could be helped, but their writers were compelled to write, by a sense of duty to a cause or an idea, or they were written with an eye to the royalties. Not that one kind is nec- essarily any better than the other. The author of the couldn't-be-helped book may maunder on about his favorite subject as a lover babbles about his mistress, never quite happy unless he...

PREFACE

THE object of this little book is to present some of the less obvious and less understood results of communion with God.

The fruits of the Spirit-love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness - are often, and rightly, dwelt upon as the supremely blessed outcome of the Spirit- filled life; and yet there are other, and no less real, benefits which communion with God confers, which should not be left out of the account.

To be sure, if we seek God's...

THE volume which is herewith presented to the public is the result of a suggestion made by the President and faculty of Auburn Theological Seminary, that I should prepare a course of lectures on Christian Nurture with especial reference to the Society of Christian Endeavor as a means of Christian training.

Much has been written on this subject, but never to my knowledge has there been a systematic effort to set forth the great principles of...

PREFACE

CHILDREN like to impersonate other people. They enjoy nothing better than to play that for the time being they are some one else. The little girl is mother of her doll. The boy is the big Indian, Massasoit or Samoset; and, if he can don an imita- tion suit of buckskin with fringes and feathers, the illusion is all the dearer to him.

If not carried too far, and if it does not involve impersonations of unworthy characters, such play and pretending are...
