Media Reviews
The true proof of an anthology is its classroom performance...Pearsalla s smorgasbord of short extracts, dressed with first--rate contextualizing commentary and references to just the right secondary literature, inspire much independent investigation and a joyous crop of non-- repetitive termpapers. Above all, it is a pleasure to work with a volume annotated from a lifetimesa s learning and leavened by rare, companionable humour. Many moments linger. Medium Aevum
