Recenzje

"Romantic Childhood, Romantic Heirs is remarkably thorough in terms of its scope, making fine differentiations in such a way that each text that Turner considers reveals itself as at once part of a larger tradition and yet uncompromisingly its own distinct object." (D. B. Ruderman, European Romantic Review, Vol. 30 (1), 2019)
