Gregorius. Floridus tifernae tiberinae episcopus cuius ueritatis atque sanctitatis est, dilectioni tuae incognitum non est. Hic mihi esse apud se presbiterum quendam, amantium nomine, praecipuae simplicitatis narrauit uirum, quem hoc habere uirtutis perhibet, ut apostolorum more manum super aegros ponat et saluti restituat, et quamlibet uehemens aegritudo sit, ad tactum illius abscedat.

Gregory the Great wrote his `Dialogues` between 593 and 594 in Rome when he was the Bishop of this city. They were written in order to present lives and miracles of Italian saints, many of them contemporary to Gregory, and the greatest of them, saint Benedict of Nurcia. The `Dialogues` are divided into four books in which Gregory tells the stories of various saints to Peter, who was a deacon and a friend of Gregory, and is also known from the Gregory`s private correspondence.
