Kritik
"It is a pleasure to share my experience of reading Nicholas Ealy's rich, insightful, and highly readable critical work on the use of the Narcissus myth in selected medieval French narrative poems. ... Narcissism and Selfhood in Medieval French Literature has laid the groundwork for the next needed installment on this topic: the ways in which medieval narratives depict women's sense of self." (Linda Marie Rouillard, The MedievalReview, scholarworks.iu.edu, June 21, 2021)mehr
