A well-known work by Pope Gregory the Great (ca. 540-604) in four books, two of which are dedicated to contemporary Italian saints, one to St. Benedict of Nursia, and one to the fate of the soul after death, full of anecdotes about this theme, including various near-death experiences. Translation by Domenico Cavalca. -- Margins are a bit short; the last leaf is an almost imperceptible facsimile. Detailed description and additional images upon request.
