Reviews


One of the most pleasing things about this Festschrift - surely one of the most impressive to have appeared in the field of French studies for many years - is that it possesses not merely the factitious cohesion conferred by a plausible title, but a genuine organic unity deriving from a common theme of exceptional richness, that can be profitably pursued in relation to works of widely differing periods and genres.
