Reviews

'I hope I have encouraged any library that has a concern for Tudor history, English culture, bibliography [...] and/or scholarship to obtain this book. Apart from its value to historians, it provides a first-class role model for any future bibliography.' Reference Reviews 'The vast amount of Italian works and authors translated and published in English since the second half of the sixteenth century and collected in this beautiful, comprehensive and useful bibliography is the best testimony to the cultural phenomenon of fascination that the island experienced during this time... each (long) entry is on average two pages long with a very thorough and useful series of interesting details, useful also to Italian researchers... The bibliography includes an impressive section of more than one hundred pages of precious and functional appendices and indices, including a variety of graphs, listing Italian books published in London divided up by subject-matter and type, books written in Latin by Italian authors, printers and publishers, both Italian and others, and the sources and literary resources used. [This bibliography] is useful to all bibliographers and Italianists, Anglicists, historians of thought and of the Renaissance, of culture and institutions.' Professor Anna Giulia Cavagna, TECA: Testimonianze, editoria, cultura, arte
