Reviews

The diversity seen in figures, subject matter, and context also extends to sources, which include treatises, casuistries, sermons, letters, journals, and poems. Those working with rare books will be pleasantly surprised by tidbits on writing, publishing, and translating practices. ... it should be read critically, with a sensitivity to possible future developments. (Jenny-Lyn de Klerk, Evangelical Quarterly, Vol. 89 (4), 2018)
