AD 590-604 A Study of the role of the bishops under pope Gregory the great
Born in Rome c. 540 Studied law, and was well versed in Christian teaching due to ancestral and familial connections Reigned as Pope between 590-604 Best known for further developing and solidifying church administration, especially in that if England, where this development would lead to the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons Pope Gregory the Great
Center position of the Church hierarchy: Pope, Archbishop, Bishop, Priest, Deacon, Sub-Deacon Lowest-Tier of Higher Church Administration, highest tier of lower church administration. Role consisted of dualities of responsibilities and practice: higher church authority and the common parish; royal and papal authority, piety and self-desire THE BISHOPS
Dualities display how the church and Christian Doctrine and law were still developing. Opposing sides of Noble and Papal involvement in the church, as well as sins of the bishop, (while not directly correlated with this period) would continue into the Central and High Middle Ages. Significance
