Gregory of Tours was a bishop of late antiquity who was famously devoted to promoting the efficacy of saintly powers. This book analyses Gregory's writings about death and the afterlife, thereby illuminating the bishop's pastoral imperative to save souls and revealing his opinions about the fates of Merovingian royals, among many others.
