Recenzii

[A] stimulating book...fascinating... The eighteen essays included in this thought-provoking volume demonstrate that multiple approaches to the creative arts of courtesans can do much to enrich our understanding of the central issues: gender, sexuality, musicality, and textuality... The contributors, editors and publisher should be complimented on their leading-edge achievement.
...complete with a thoughtful editorial introduction and a disk with seventeen songs... A great deal of research and analysis...along with the dedication needed to edit conference proceedings, has given us a volume that encourages further comparisons and a search for parallels and analogues.
