Recenzii

“Transitions in Middlebrow Writing succeeds in opening up new frameworks. … its greatest strength is the way in which the collection attempts to open up dialogue between modernist scholars and middlebrow studies; in addition, the edited collection offers fresh insights to historians of reading, reception, and publishing, and to periodical scholars alike.” (Victoria Kuttainen, SHARP News, sharpweb.org, July, 2016)

“Including chapter notes and an extensive bibliography, this deftly edited collection is a fine piece of scholarship. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.” (C. McCutcheon, Choice, Vol. 53 (8), April, 2016)
“The collection manages admirably to readjust our conceptions of‘literary history.’ ... this eminently useful and enjoyable collection points the way towards further explorations of shifting and transitional cultural formations.” (Anne-Julia Zwierlein, Anglistik, Vol. 27 (1), March, 2016)
