Book Details
First Sentence
"June 1064. Peter Damian (1007-72), one of the leading lights of the eleventh-century movement for church reform, sent Pope Alexander II (1061-73) a small treatise in the form of a letter, De brevitate (On Brevity), raising a problem that at first sight seems peculiar: "Why," he inquired, "does the head of the Apostolic See never live very long, but always dies within a short time?""
