SUMMARY:The Letters of St. Ignatius of Antioch Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nOpen to current graduate students at the University of Chicago. Participants can come to whichever sessions they choose. Others interested in participating should contact Garrett Ashlock at gashlock@uchicago.edu. Books and drinks will be provided. The reading may be picked up at Gavin House (1220 E 58th street) during business hours at the start of the fall quarter. This will be held at the LCI Residence (5554 S Wooodlawn Ave). \nSaint Ignatius\, the second-century Bishop of Antioch\, is known as a martyr\, an “Apostolic Father\,” and the first writer to call the church “catholic.” However\, much like Saint Paul\, who served as his literary model\, Ignatius did not compose theological treatises\, summas\, or tractates but seven epistles sent to the churches in Rome and Asia Minor. They represent some of the earliest Christian writings apart from the New Testament itself and are an invaluable resource for theologians and historians alike. This reading group will journey with Ignatius to his eventual martyrdom in Rome\, encountering along the way his sophisticated musings and instructions on topics like the nature of Christ\, the role of the bishop\, the canon of scripture\, and the meaning of martyrdom. We will find in him an author who\, in addition to being a portal into the early church\, is remarkably personal and prescient and an expert guide to thinking about Christianity today. \nSCHEDULE:\nThis group will meet on Mondays (beginning January 27th) from 6:00pm – 7:30pm over dinner. \nJan 27: Letter to the Ephesians\nFeb 3: Letter to the Magnesians\, Letter to the Trallians\nFeb 10: Letter to the Romans\nFeb 17: Letter to the Philadelphians\, Letter to the Smyrneans\nFeb 24: Letter to Polycarp\, “On Pseudo-Ignatius”
