"Doerfler paints vibrant portraits of how late antique Christian communities responded to children's deaths and parental grief, reading their lives and experiences through the accounts of biblical heroes and heroines faced with tragedy. Both vivid and clear, this book will appeal to many readers." --Caroline T. Schroeder, author of Monastic Bodies: Discipline and Salvation in Shenoute of Atripe "Children's death is a timeless grief, crossing history and cultures. In this beautifully written and sensitive book, Doerfler explores biblical stories in conversation with modern perspectives on children and violence. An important addition to patristic research, her study will also speak to readers in theology, human rights, and social justice." --Susan R. Holman, John R. Eckrich Chair and Professor of Religion and the Healing Arts, Valparaiso University
