History of Rome and the Popes in the Middle Ages, Volume 3

About this film

LibriVox recording of History of Rome and the Popes in the Middle Ages, Volume 3 by Hartmann Grisar. Read in English by Ann Boulais This present work may be described as history of the medieval Popes, with the history of the city of Rome, and its civilization, as a background, the author's desire being so to combine the two stories as to produce a true picture of what Rome was in the middle ages. Volume 3 continues with a discussion of Western Monasticism, especially with the foundation of the Benedictines and the Rule of St Benedict; the pontificates of Popes Vigilius, Pelagius I, John III, Benedict I, and Pelagius II; and the changes and decline happening in Rome after the war with the Goths and the Lombard invasion.
