Reviews

"This magisterial handbook with its careful and lucid analysis of literary types and parallels and valuable bibliographic guidance will surely become a standard work, a constant companion, and a starting point for many a research paper and scholarly study over the next two decades."
—James D. G. Dunn, Professor of Divinitiy, University of Durham, England.
