Reviews

Intelligent, erudite and thought-provoking. [...] Offers a timely and illuminating reminder of the complexities of geographical representation within medieval literary culture.'

Scholars interested in the production of medieval nationhood will benefit from reading Literary Landscapes, while those engaged in pastoral genres will find that a new area of research has emerged courtesy of Catherine Clarke.'

Helps to define the problems of integrating the complex and highly theorized field of textual and literary criticism with the empirical data and methodologies of landscape history. Clearly written and a pleasure to read.'
