Recenzje

'[The book] usefully points the way for further fruitful labour at the intersection of ecocritical and religious discourse. The incisiveness of its close readings guarantees that Shakespeareans, and scholars of early modern literature more generally, have much to enjoy here.' Daniel Cattell, The Seventeenth Century
