The book The Style of the Letters of St. Gregory the Great by Mary Borromeo Dunn is a comprehensive analysis of the writing style of St. Gregory the Great, a prominent figure in the early Christian Church. The book explores the various literary techniques and rhetorical devices used by St. Gregory in his letters, which were written during his tenure as Pope from 590 to 604 AD. The author examines the historical context in which these letters were written, and how they were influenced by the political and social climate of the time. She also explores the theological themes present in the letters, and how they reflect St. Gregory's beliefs about the nature of God and the Church. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of St. Gregory's writing style. These include his use of metaphors and other literary devices, his approach to addressing theological controversies, and his use of language to convey his authority as Pope. Overall, The Style of the Letters of St. Gregory the Great is an insightful and engaging exploration of the writing style of one of the most important figures in the history of the Christian Church. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, as well as those interested in the art of persuasive writing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
