Ambrose
Bishop of Milan who deeply affected Augustine by his eloquent and intelligent messages. Threatened the Christian emperor Theodisius in Milan with excommunication for killing 7,000 Thessalonians in A.D. 390. His threat eventually humiliated the emperor, and its precedent set a pattern for the Catholic church to this day.
