title = "The reception of late-antique popes in the medieval Byzantine tradition",
abstract = "Leo the Great (440–461) and Gregory the Great (590–604) earned their epithets in very different ways, Leo by his intervention at the Council of Chalcedon via one momentous letter known as the Tome to Flavian, followed by a decade of campaigning tirelessly against one-nature doctrine and against anti-Chalcedonian bishops. Gregory I earned his reputation in Byzantium by his widely disseminated work of spiritual direction, the Regula Pastoralis, and his prolific publication of works in various genres, especially the Dialogues, which were taken up by the Byzantine church in the Greek translation of Pope Zacharias. This study looks at the reception of these and other late-antique popes in the Byzantine tradition in the Middle Ages, and how they were used to promote particular agenda by eastern and western writers.",
