Recenzii

"...These brief summaries fail to do justice to the variety, scholarship, and good humor present throughout this collection. It is a work of high quality, both in content and presentation, assembled with the respect and admiration felt by all who knew the honoree. Coming too soon in the life and career of its remarkable subject, the work combines within its pages what Campbell’s opening memoir identifies as Fletcher’s own unique synthesis of “a sometimes ironic sense of the past with a thoughtfulness edging on melancholy” (p. 15)..."
Lorraine Attreed (College of the Holy Cross), AARHMS Spring 2009
