_Gregory's Works._--The following are now universally admitted to be
genuine:--_Epistolarum libri xiv._, _Moralium libri xxxv._, _Regulae
pastoralis liber_, _Dialogorum libri iv._, _Homiliarum in Ezechielem
prophetam libri ii._, _Homiliarum in Evangelia libri ii._ These are
all printed in Migne's _Patrologia Latina_. The _Epistolae_, however,
have been published separately by P. Ewald and L. M. Hartmann in the
_Monumenta Germaniae historica_ (Berlin, 1887-1899), and this splendid
edition has superseded all others. The question of the chronological
reconstruction of the _Register_ is dealt with by Ewald in his
celebrated article in the _Neues Archiv der Gesellschaft fur altere
deutsche Geschichtskunde_, iii. pp. 433-625; and briefly by T.
Hodgkin, _Italy and her Invaders_, v. 333-343. For information about
these writings of Gregory, consult especially G. J. T. Lau, _Gregor I.
der Grosse_, pt. ii. chap. i. _Die Schriften Gregors_ and F. Homes
Dudden, _Gregory the Great_ (see Index II. B.). In addition to the
above-mentioned works there are printed under Gregory's name in
Migne's _Patrologia Latina_, vol. lxxix., the following:--_Super
Cantico Canticorum expositio_, _In librum primum Regum variarum
expositionum libri vi._, _In septem psalmos poenitentiales expositio_
and _Concordia quorundam teslimoniorum s. scripturae_. But (with the
possible exception of the first) none of these treatises are of
Gregorian authorship. See the discussions in Migne, Lau and Dudden.
