The Sacred Writings of Leo the Great

Leo I. was the first pope to have been called "the Great". He is also known as a Doctor and Father of the Church and has issued the Tome of Leo, a document which was one of the cornerstones in the debates of the Ecumenical Council of Chalcedon. The sermons and letters included in this book are mostly concerned with theological questions concerning the person of Jesus Christ and his role as mediator and savior.
