Recenzje

Kraemer's book...reveals the forgotten realities not of a minority group for a brief moment in time, but of a huge empire-wide stakeholder group over multiple centuries. Just by its topic, then, it would likely prove important, but the rigour of its readings and its sensitivity to its subjects make it an instant classic.
