(<i>The Classical Review</i>, 2008)</p> <p>"This collection of essays, a volume in the Classical Reception Series edited by Maria Wyke, deserves the close attention of anyone with an interest in reception studies and in particular in reception theory." (<i>Journal of Hellenic Studies</i>, February 2009)</p> <p>"[A] landmark collection ... The volume as a whole offers readers an enriched theoretical understanding of reception and its uses." <i>(Fabula)</i></p> <p>"This body of work is not just a coordinated foray into someone else's territory; students of classical reception are writing a collective autobiography and developing a new charter for our discipline." <i>(Bryn Mawr Classical Review)</i></p>
