Rezensionen

"Katie Garner's Romantic Women Writers and Arthurian Legend is to experience a shift in scale. Garner's work is on a niche topic, and the question arises as to how broad a readership it can attract. ... scholars interested in Romantic medievalism or Romantic Arthurianism more specifically may want to follow up some of the paths Garner opens, and they will undoubtedly find this monograph a useful source book." (Geraldine S. Friedman, European Romantic Review, Vol. 30 (4), 2019)

"Romantic Women Writers and Arthurian Legend wears its intellectual rigour with elegance and manages to be fluent and readable while demonstrably being the product of erudite and incisive research. ... Garner's book will be of enormous benefit to scholars of nineteenth-century Arthurania and medievalism, as well as to scholars researching nineteenth-century women's reading practices and negotiations with the literary marketplace more generally." (Clare Broome Saunders, Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature, Vol. 38 (1), 2019)
"Engagingly written and painstakingly researched, this book provides an insightful and multifaceted view of Romantic women writers' relationship with Arthurian legend." (Lisa Plummer Crafton, Medievally Speaking, medievallyspeaking.blogspot.com, August, 2018)
