Kritik
The Oxford Handbook of Thomas Middleton is by turns profoundly intelligent, brazenly provocative, and thoroughly engaging. It looks at a vast array of topics while remaining faithful to its fascinating subject. More important, it fulfils its editorial intention by stirring debate and challenging convention about the plays, the playing, the players, and the playwright. Patrick J. Murray, Theatre Journal This useful, edifying, well-informed volume brings together a range of essays ... this original and substantial collection of scholarship and criticism on Middleton, the first of its kind, will surely appeal to scholars, teachers, and students ... Recommended C.S. Cox, Choice Magnificent Middleton scholars, Middleton experts, and Middleton fans. It will overjoy them, since it's an exuberant performance from start to finish. Steve Donoghue, Open Letters Monthly [It] features the largest collection of Middleton criticism ever published ... highly recommended Clifford Cunningham, Sun News Networkmehr
