De què tracta
La Regla pastoral: com ha de ser qui té càrrec d'altres, com s'hi ha d'arribar, i com s'ha de parlar de manera diferent a cada mena de persona. Amb una selecció de cartes.
Context i història
Gregori la va escriure just després de ser fet papa, el 590, i comença explicant per què no volia el càrrec. La quarta part és una llista minuciosa de com predicar a l'orgullós i a l'humil, al ric i al pobre, al sanitós i al malalt: no és retòrica sinó una teoria del tracte. Va ser un dels llibres més copiats de l'alta Edat Mitjana i el rei Alfred el va fer traduir a l'anglès antic perquè el tinguessin tots els bisbes.

The relations of these kingdoms to the Empire were at this time amicable; and it was in ecclesiastical, and not temporal, matters that Gregory had dealings with them, as will appear below. His talents and activity in secular affairs were shewn also in his management of the possessions in various quarters with which the See of Rome had been endowed, known as "St. Peter's patrimony." In Sicily especially, and also in Campania, Calabria, Dalmatia and elsewhere, and to a small extent in Gaul, the Roman Church held lands so called, over all fo which Gregory exercised personal superintendence by letters to his various agents, shewing a remarkable knowledge of the state of things in the several localities, and giving minute directions. While, on the one hand, he took care that the Church should not be defrauded of her just dues, on the other hand we find him repeatedly and strongly forbidding any unjust claims, or any oppression of him, by agents on the spot, called rectores patrimonii, and often by deacons, or subdeacons, sent from Rome, to control the ordinary rectores, or act in the same capacity. We find bishops also in some cases acting as rectores. There was also a class of officials called defensores ecclesiae, or Guardians of the Church, who were required to be authorized by letters from Rome under the Pope's hand (see V. 29; IX. 62; XL 38). These letters of appointment, of which we have specimens in V. 29 and XL 38, specified the protection of the poor as their primary duty. But their office had a much wider scope. We find them commissioned, not only to carry out various works of charity, but also to
