Recenzii

“Prison Narratives from Boethius to Zana, edited by Philip Edward Phillips, defines a new generic lens and literary tradition through which to approach Boethius, and they have the great potential to energize Boethius Studies in an exciting new direction.” (Krista Sue-Lo Twu, Carmina Philosophiae, Vol. 23, 2014)
