Reviews

Shortlisted for the European Society for the Study of English Book Award 2012 in the Literatures in the English Language, Junior Scholars category 'I recommend this book for its numerous strengths... [Smyth’s] theoretical sections are among the most comprehensive and innovative treatments of time as a cultural construct that I have read. I recommend this book to all those interested in the subject of time. I believe that Smyth’s book represents a valuable contribution to a fascinating novel, and important field.' Comitatus '... a well-researched literary analysis with significant contributions to our understanding of the medieval-modern transition, especially the conceptual groundwork for understanding time (both scientifically and not) that was constructed during this important threshold period.' British Society for Literature and Science
