Recenzii
“An
altogether
delightful
book.
The
authors
have
a
gift
for
the
telling
detail,
and
for
smuggling
in
the
unexpected.
It
is
hard
to
imagine
a
book
that
does
its
job,
of
introducing
medieval
romance
and
its
afterlife
to
the
general
reader,
more
perfectly.”
"Evangelicals
and
literary
critics
have
looked
sternly
askance
at
medieval
romance
for
about
six
hundred
years.
Entirely
undaunted,
medieval
romances
pass
insouciantly
across
borders
of
time,
geography,
social
class,
and
gender
with
their
passports
of
pleasure. Nicholas
Perkins
and
Alison
Wiggins
here
allow
us
to
join
those
journeys
of
romance.
Their
lightly
worn,
precise
scholarship
takes
us
inside
the
books
of
these
marvelous
stories.
This
is
a
gorgeous,
utterly
delightful
book."
"This
book
is
at
once
an
informative
and
lively
introduction
to
all
aspects
of
romance—medieval
and
modern,
its
writers
and
readers,
in
manuscript
and
print—and
a
treasure
trove
of
some
of
the
Bodleian's
visually
most
remarkable
holdings."—Helen
Cooper,
Cambridge
University
"A
richly
woven
tapestry
of
image
and
text.
A
great
resource
and
a
wonderful
read."
