Recensioner i media
It is impossible in a brief review to do justice to the various approaches and the rich material – including well-chosen illustrations – assembled in this volume, whose merits are tied to the quality of its individual contributions as well as the insights to be gained across chapters... The Companion will be essential reading in (post)colonial and periodical studies for years to come.
