Recenzii

"If this collection is anything to go by [...] Lynch's real legacy lies [...] in demonstrating the rich possibilities opened up by refusing to be bound by such categories as social, religious, political, or cultural ghistory, and seeing past events in general and the Scottish Reformation in particular in emphatically multidimensional terms."
Roger A. Mason, University of St. Andrews

This collection of eighteen essays is a fine tribute to one of the foremost historians of early modern Scotland and provides eloquent testimony to the affectionate regard in which he is held. [...] This is a lively collection that will be much consulted. Several of its essays sparkle, nearly all present the fruits of original research, and all are thought provoking.
Ralph Houlbrooke, Journal of British Studies (July 2010), 692-693.

"The quality of the essays makes the cost of the book well worth considering."
Cynthia J. Neville, Sixteenth-Century Journal 40:4 (2009) 1217-1218.
