Recenzii

This is a very welcome and valuable addition to humanity's cultural heritage, and I recommend it highly for any research library, as well as scholars in any of the fields of study it engages with. A great publishing effort.
No review can fully do justice to the extent of erudition the contributors demonstrate in this six-volume set. ... These are complex texts in the classic academic sense.
