"A splendid survey of Isidore’s legacy in early medieval Europe. ... [the chapters] furnish us with resourceful intellectual, cultural, and historical frameworks for thinking about Isidore, especially in terms of his usage and currency." - Eric Lacey and Simon Thomson, The Year's Work in English Studies, Volume 98, Issue 1, 2019 "This book gathers a very complete range of topics regarding Isidore in light of recent bibliography and research. It is, in short, a magnificent update for Isidorian studies of any kind." - Ana-Isabel Magallón, University of Zaragoza, Speculum 94/1 (January 2019) "Anglophone scholars whose work involves Isidore (e.g. any Anglo-Saxonist) will find this volume useful for its insights into Isidore specifically and medieval transmission of knowledge more generally; its massive bibliographies will also prove invaluable to those for whom Isidore's work forms an important, if taken for granted, component of their own specialties." - Hilary E. Fox of Wayne State University
