Reviews

The volume should encourage and help scholars of Observant reform in the late Middle Ages to carry out truly comparative research, as it lays a very solid foundation for future study in this field. Jan Stejskal, Palacky University. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 70, No. 1 (Spring 2017), pp. 338-339.
