Recenzje

'Literary authorship entails much more than composing texts that form aesthetic wholes. A host of other elements factor into the process, and for those interested in the dynamics of the phenomenon, there is no better source to consult than this handbook, which provides a comprehensive survey of the burgeoning field of intellectual inquiry and looks at the cultural peregrinations of a species erroneously thought by many to be extinct - the author.' H. I. Einsohn, Choice
