Description
Abstract (cited)

The Carolingian-era vita of Betharius of Chartres offers a pithy description of an otherwise-unattested ecclesiastical council c. ad 600. This study evaluates the hypothesis that the Council of Sens met in response to a request by Pope Gregory i, and that its agenda included an investigation of the Irish monastic reformer Columbanus.
