Recenzii

"From Shakespeare to Obama is a writerly, inventive, idiosyncratic series of meditations on language, slavery, rhetoric, and the public and the private, reaching into past and future, forging a new and exciting model for comparative scholarship as engaged story-telling." - Page duBois, Distinguished Professor of Classics and Comparative Literature, University of California, San Diego, USA
