Reviews

'[Reid] makes a refreshingly eclectic sampling of material from writers at the periphery to those at the centre of the canon, from ballads and broadsheets to Shakespearean drama ...' Review of English Studies 'This is a fascinating and thought-provoking book, which should be read by anyone interested in classical reception in this period.' Spenser Review 'Fascinating ... an impressively wrought and thoroughly researched intricacy of texts, intertexts, literary transmission, and of the real and fictional figures adapting and moulding the reception of arguably the most popular classical writer from the late medieval era to the Tudor age.' International Journal of the Classical Tradition 'The crux of Reid's thesis is an important idea: the representation of books in literature allows us to glimpse not only the cultural weight of specific texts, but also the material identities of books and the historical conditions of the book trade .' SHARP News
