Reviews

This is an extraordinarily useful collection of essays that will be of interest to Chartier experts and newcomers alike. It engages with the major critics and trends in Charterian scholarship, opening it up in new directions and suggesting possibilities for yet further research [...]. Each individual essay makes a unique contribution while also coinciding with the volume's overall aims; the collection's thorough citations will be valuable to any scholar, as will the selected bibliography of primary and secondary sources. Kathleen A. Loysen, Montclair State University. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 70, No. 2 (Summer 2017), pp. 645-646.
