‘… the editors have assembled a truly international and intergenerational roster of contributors that reflects the vigor and breadth of the field and the diversity of the people who work in it. One particularly salutary consequence is that numerous chapters make a great deal of research in languages that are not usually accessible to English-speakers available to them … a compendium of multi-faceted and hard-won learning.’ Peter Hayes, H-Soz-Kult
