[Ellen Shull · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very good, but not light reading. Basically a bunch of previously published scholarly papers assembled into one volume. A few of the papers veer toward pomo critical bullshit, but most are fairly well though out. I'm not entirely sure how well the collection is aging; published around 2000, it contains papers dating back at least a decade.
