  • ‘As the back cover notes, the book “connects new and old points from scholarship with innovative perspectives on the text.” In places, this has provided a potential new framework for viewing the text as a whole; in others, it has produced reasonable readings that escape various interpretive dead ends from previous generations of scholars.’ — Adam Oberlin, Journal of English and Germanic Philology 123.1, January 2024, 108-11
