Recenzje

outstanding scholar ... The punctiliousness of Cauchi's scholarship is evident ... Such respect for matters of fact and history is refreshingly unfashionable and totally praiseworthy. However, one hopes that Cauchi's formidable skills will soon be used in the service of enterprises more substantially appealing to most of us. Cauchi's own comments on Harington show that he can distinguish between texts which are of literary interest and those which are not.
