Book Synopsis
The Old English Pastoral Care, a ninth-century translation from Latin of Pope Gregory the Great’s guide for aspiring bishops that advises on what sort of spiritual guidance bishops should provide, was aimed at revitalizing the English Church. This new edition and translation into modern English is the first to appear in a century and a half.

Trade Review
Fulk’s new translation of the Pastoral Care renders this often-overlooked text far more accessible for a whole range of readers…It is to be hoped that students, teachers, and researchers use Fulk’s new edition to go beyond the prefaces and epilogues, and turn their meticulous attention to the main text of this important and understudied Old English translation. -- Amy Faulkner * Medieval Review *
