Autorenporträt
Gregory of Tours, born Georgius Florentius around 538 AD, was a significant figure in the Merovingian kingdom, renowned for his contributions as the Bishop of Tours and as a Gallo-Roman historian. He hailed from a prominent Gallo-Roman family, which positioned him well within the ecclesiastical and political realms of his time. His seminal work, Decem Libri Historiarum or Historia Francorum, provides a detailed account of the Franks and is pivotal for understanding Merovingian history. Gregory's life was intricately woven with the political and religious fabric of his era, navigating complex relationships with Merovingian rulers while contributing to the cultural legacy of early medieval Europe through his writings and the promotion of Christian pilgrimage sites, notably the Tomb of St. Martin in Tours.
