Recenzii

Kim Haines-Eitzen has produced a thought-provoking, readable and enjoyable book, essential reading for anyone who desires to know more about the illustrious obscure Christians who copied the New Testament in the earliest days.
... both informative and enjoyable.
An especially interesting chapter provides evidence regarding a female scribal culture in the early Christian period ... the book is a step towards a social history of scribes in the second and third centuries. Guardians of Letters is a worthy addition to recent studies on the 'culture', material and otherwise, of reading and writing in early Christianity.
The author ... is not afraid to question and contradict the opinions of the big guns ... She guides her readers with regular reminders and signposts, which serve as summaries and cross references to other parts of the book.
