Gregory illustrates the complex reception of Chalcedon in the West in the way he dealt with the Istrian Schism caused by the Fifth Ecumenical Council of 553. At issue was whether Chalcedon's decisions in their entirety or its doctrinal statements alone were inviolable. Gregory strongly urged the latter, influenced by initial papal support for the Fifth Council, his conviction that only those within the church would be saved and pastoral anxiety about the imminence of the eschaton. However, his literary legacy also demonstrates his commitment to the soteriological significance of the Chalcedonian definition of the two natures of Christ.

西方查尔斯顿的招待会：以格雷戈里大帝为例

格里高利（Gregory）阐述了查尔斯顿在西方对复杂的接受态度，因为他处理的是由553年第五次世界大公会议造成的伊斯特拉分裂主义。问题在于，查尔斯顿的全部决定或仅其教义声明是不可侵犯的。格雷戈里强烈敦促后者，在最初得到教皇对第五委员会的支持后，他坚信只有教会内的人会得救，牧民对即将来临的迫切忧虑。但是，他的文学遗产也表明了他对迦勒底式定义基督的两种本质的社会学意义的承诺。
