Reviews

'This book provides an excellent case-study both for the dividends reaped from paying close attention to how the classics were read in the later medieval period and how failure to pay attention to this material risks distorting our understanding of the Renaissance.' Justin Stover, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 'Scholars of the Renaissance and medieval period, of the history of philosophy, and of the history of the book and of literacy will prize Refini's immensely learned volume. It is equally valuable to literary scholars focused on the practice of reception and on translation, both of which are essential to scholarly interrogation of cultural continuity and discontinuity from the ancient to the modern periods.' Brenda Deen Schildgen, Speculum: A Journal of Medieval Studies
