Recenzje

'… Image, Text, and Religious Reform in Fifteenth-Century England is a timely and detailed study of the complex relationship between religious images and English devotional texts written in the last pre-Reformation century … Gayk's learned book is an important contribution to what Vincent Gillespie describes as the continued "religious turn" in Middle English studies.'
