Review Quotes:
"Wer ihn [den Band] zur Gänze oder auch nur in Ausschnitten liest, wird dem Autor Bewunderung für die Breite seiner Interessen, seine Kenntnis der Primär- und Sekundärliteratur und die Detailgenauigkeit seiner Analysen nicht versagen."
Johannes Göbel in: Rhetorica 3/2007
"The work collected in this volume can in many respects be regarded as the measure to which one's own should live up: the author's thorough knowledge of the primary as well as the secondary literature (in virtually all western-European languages), his examplary accuracy, and his elaborate, but not laboured, prose add up to scholarship at its very best."
