Rezensionen

"An absolutely fascinating subject, and researched with rigor. It is truly amazing how many sources Hillyer has explored, and how many references to Sidney he has discovered. The stakes of the various portraits of Sidney are clear, which makes for a compelling read. Sir Philip Sidney, Cultural Icon attests brilliantly to something we all believe: that literature from the past is not dead, but is continually and necessarily being remade." - Michael Schoenfeldt, Professor of English, University of Michigan
