Reviews
"Stefaniw deserves credit for drawing attention back to the classroom setting of these texts, because they are precious evidence of how one real classroom worked in antiquity. . . . Stefaniw's vivid and lively study returns attention to the teaching of a learned Alexandrian whose texts remain understudied." * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *
"In sum, an orienting narrative, original translations of understudies texts, and thoughtful engagement with theory make this book required reading for anyone interested in ancient Christian reading practices. Its prose will make that requirement a joy." * Church History *
