Media Reviews
The zeal and vigor with which Gregory defined and pursued reforming policies . . . is not debatable. The large selection of letters translated by Ephraim Emerton puts at a readers disposal the evidence of the papal documents themselves. . . . Emertons introduction [is] useful, both for setting Gregory into the framework of eleventh century ecclesiastical reform and for a diplomatic orientation to the Register and the survival of Gregorys correspondence.
