Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"Ein Sammelband, der den Austausch der Kulturen thematisiert ohne deren Besonderheiten zu vergessen, der methodisch das Aufeinanderzugehen postuliert und praktiziert; kurz: der den Weg zu Uniformitat und Selbstisolation begrussenswerterweise gerade vermeidet. Ihm seien viele Leser und Nachahmer gewunscht."Helge Nowak in: Anglia 1/2007 "This latter grouping of essays, like the majoritiy in the volume as a whole, are subtly mounted, forward-looking and complex, bringing to a conclusion a collection that ist readable and versatile as it is enlightening and original."Mark Thornton Burnett in: Shakespeare Jahrbuch 2007 "There is much to learn from the individual articles as well as from the overall volume."Gesa Stedman in: Renaissance Quarterly 2006 Read more...
