Reviews

Making a significantly innovative contribution to Celestina studies is by no means an easy task, yet in this monograph James F. Burke does just that, offering a far-reaching reinterpretation of the text in relation to the medieval philosophy of the senses. . . . [This is] an extremely useful guide for readers of Celestina. --Andrew M. Beresford, MLR


Pre-modern people quite literally saw the world differently from the way we do. James Burke does not just tell us about it, he shows it, and our eyes are different when they look again at <em>Celestina</em>. </p> Catherine Brown, <em>Medieval Academy</em></p>
