Recenzii

'Concept looks good ... I like the idea... they should do very well'
'This looks excellent; I shall look forward to seeing the first texts.' - Jennifer Nicholson, University of Newcastle
'Your new series looks interesting and timely' - Professor Elaine Treharne, University of Leicester (Chair of the English Association)
'This is a book which we would like our first years to have read - a guide which gives the information without which a student would be entirely at sea.' - Professor Lisa Hopkins, Sheffield Hallam University (from proposal)
'[This] series offers both the student reader and teacher exciting and invaluable interventions in and reorientations around questions of history, culture, and period ... With brio, verve, and an admirable brevity, the series grounds our understanding of literature and culture in thought-provoking and highly original ways. ... an indispensible series that will set the benchmark for all such surveys and overviews.' - Julian Wolfreys, Professor of Victorian Literary and Cultural Studies at the University of Florida.
