Rezensionen

'The Chronology is of great value... The detail Nicholas von Maltzahn assembles is impressive, the product of considerable trawling through a huge range of documents, and there is much here that is new.' - Times Literary Supplement

'...magnificently fills a long-standing need...Scrupulously researched and lucidly written, this book deserves the warmest of welcomes.' - David Norbrook, Notes and Queries

'...an invaluable research tool, a landmark in Marvell studies. Scrupulously researched and prepared...the chronology is also readable, and I can imagine Marvellians pouring through the pages as much for pleasure as for profit. Fully informed about textual scholarship, von Maltzahn is an authoritative guide to the life and times of 'AM'. '- Patrick Cheney, Studies in English Literature
