Learning Christ is a thorough theological and historical
engagement. The book should be read by students and scholars of
early Christianity, but is written clearly enough to be accessible
to interested readers outside of the academy. Vail's implementation
of the 'hermeneutic of understanding and empathy' has provided not
only an in-depth analysis of Ignatius's letters, but potentially a
helpful way to engage other figures in church history
theologically.""-Anglican Theological Review ""This is a careful
analysis of the letters of Ignatius with no lack of scholarly
erudition...""-Choice ""Learning Christ is well worth the time put
into reading it carefully. It is a book that places Vall among
those scholars who are also capable teachers, allowing fairly easy
access to difficult material, providing what is also an enjoyable
and rewarding reading experience.""-The Downside Review ""Through
such an analysis Vall constructs a thoroughgoing theology from the
letters of Ignatius, which is both sophisticated and
coherent.""-The Expository Times ""His study will be a valuable
resource for those interested in positioning the Antiochene bishop
within the broader currents of Catholic theology.""-Religious
Studies Review ""In ten clear and illuminating chapters, Gregory
Vall brings the reader through the many legends and apocryphal
assumptions surrounding Ignatius and his thinking... Vall
specializes in matters where the New Testament and the Apostolic
Fathers converge, and his latest is a welcome contribution in just
such a field.""-The Thomist
