The Usborne Complete Shakespeare

"In The Circulation of Power in Medieval Biblical Drama, Robert S. Sturges overturns longstanding assumptions about the interpretive docility of medieval drama, proving its queer (and queering) potential in a series of stunningly original readings. Plays I thought I knew, from Quem quaeritis to the Wakefield Master's Second Shepherds', have never looked fresher." - Tison Pugh, Professor of English, University of Central Florida, USA, and author of Sexuality and Its Queer Discontents in Middle English Literature and Chaucer's (Anti-) Eroticisms and the Queer Middle Ages

"A must-read for anyone interested in gender, religion, or theater. This book makes a compelling case for the subversive potential of medieval biblical plays. In wide-angled and theoretically-nuanced readings, it shows how power is created and sustained in early religious theater, but - more importantly - also critiqued. Among the book's highlights is its insistence on the continued relevance of medieval plays and on the value of past culture in helping us rethink power relations in the present." - Clair Sponsler, Professor of English, University of Iowa, USA and author of The Queen's Dumbshows: John Lydgate and the Making of Early Theater

“One of the greatest achievements of Andrew Hock Soon Ng’s volume is the combination of different fields of study in order to investigate the palpable connection between self and space in the texts. The ambiguity of this connection, explored in detail throughout the book, is emphasized in all of the chapters. … It is a valuable contribution to both literary and film studies and a useful reading for scholars interested in the bordering fields of psychology, spatial and gender studies.” (Zsuzsanna Nagy-Szalóki, Hungarian Journal of English and American Studies, Vol. 24 (1), 2018)

“This book is a readable, often fascinating work that relies on a host of source material never before brought together … Samuel Beckett’s Theatre in America will be of enormous assistance to those who wish to better understand either of its central characters, or the American theatre especially in the period from 1956-71, or indeed the relationship between playwright and director in the theatrical process.” (Richard Jones, the Journal of American Drama and Theatre, Vol. 30 (2), 2018)

"This diverse and accessible collection takes on games and gaming in the European Middle Ages in various but complementary ways: by putting them in their historical context, by close readings of literary texts, and by bringing contemporary game theory to bear on the history of games. Game theorists who have focused exclusively on games in the digital age will learn a good deal about their analog history. Games and Gaming in Medieval Literature is a fine contribution to cultural game theory." - Kathleen Coyne Kelly, Professor of English, Northeastern University, USA

"In this comprehensive and exciting new collection, Serina Patterson presents a wealth of cutting-edge scholarship centered around medieval games, gaming, and play. These interdisciplinary essays cover a vast and impressive geographical and chronological sweep, and are truly path-breaking in their insistence on the fruitful comparison of medieval and modern gaming practices. Patterson's own work, and the collection more broadly, demonstrate some of the best work being undertaken in the area of medieval game studies today." - Emma Cayley, Head of Modern Languages and Associate Professor of Medieval French, University of Exeter, UK

"Games are serious business, and the essays in Serina Patterson's Games and Gaming in Medieval Literature chart exciting new territory in interrogating the porous boundaries between games, gaming, and 'real' life and provide dynamic new readings in surveying a wide variety of game texts and ludic activities from across Europe in the later Middle Ages. This provocative anthology brings well-known texts into clearer focus and gives lesser-known texts new weight." - Daniel Kline, Chair and Professor of English, University of Alaska Anchorage, USA

&ldquo;The Dead Sea Scrolls give us a window into the thought of first-century Jews such as Jesus and the disciples. Through that window we see the continuity between the Old Testament and the New. The New is not a novelty. An expert on the Scrolls, Dr. Bergsma shows us how the texts and rituals of the Qumran community illuminate the New Covenant sacraments and Christian liturgy as we know it today.&rdquo;&mdash;Scott Hahn, author of The Fourth Cup&ldquo;John Bergsma has provided the missing link between the assembly of the Old Testament and the Church of the New Testament. Read this book and you&rsquo;ll see the Gospels and the sacraments more vividly than ever before. You&rsquo;ll understand your place in history and in God&rsquo;s people. If you read just one book about first-century Judaism, let it be this one.&rdquo;&mdash;Mike Aquilina, author of&#160;The Fathers of the Church&#160;&ldquo;Since the Dead Sea Scrolls were first discovered in 1947, there have been countless books written about them. But there is nothing quite like what John Bergsma has done in&#160;Jesus and the Dead Sea Scrolls. If you have any interest whatsoever in the Jewish roots of Christianity, then&#160;buy this book!&#160;It will radically transform the way you see Jesus, Judaism, and the origins of Christianity.&rdquo;&mdash;Brant Pitre, author of&#160;Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist

"Ben Bradford’s book expands our understanding of the role of the police and adds significantly to the police powers debate in the UK. As one would expect, the empirical research is comprehensive, stimulating, accessible and makes an original contribution to the stop and search literature."

Jenny Fleming, Professor of Criminology, University of Southampton, and Editor-in-Chief of Policing & Society, an international journal of research and policy

"The use of stop and search is one of the most contentious issues in policing and Bradford provides invaluable analysis in an area where debates are often shallow and simplistic. The rich and detailed evidence is combined with fascinating discussion of the wider role and status of police in contemporary society. This book makes an important contribution to vital debates in criminology and police studies."

Michael Rowe, Professor of Criminology, Northumbria University "Stop and search is amongst the most controversial of policing issues, above all because of the huge disparity in its use against different groups. Ben　Bradford has produced a penetrating, provocative state-of-the-art review of the history, use, and potential of the stop and search　power. It is a rare combination of sophisticated theoretical and empirical analysis, combining a wealth of detailed data with a comprehensive critique of the fundamental interdependence of stop and search -　and indeed policing more generally -　with both security and inequality. It is a must-read for anyone with a concern about policing and social justice."

Robert Reiner, Emeritus Professor of Criminology, London School of Economics

My Reflections on American History, Florida Teacher Annotated Edition

“Church historians will find much value in these articles pertaining to events in thirteenth-century Christianity. … This book is valuable for its presentation not only of Christians and Jews in their respective communities but also for its in-depth presentation of how the relationship between Christians and Jews changed so dramatically from the beginning of the thirteenth century to the beginning of the fourteenth century.” (Steven J. McMichael, Church History, Vol. 87 (1), March, 2018)“Elisheva Baumgarten and Judah Galinsky's volume … &nbsp;is a welcome reminder of the Jews' long history in the French Hexagone. … All the essays are well-researched, meticulously edited, and to the point. Indeed, this a rare example of an edited book with a coherent construction and in which the different essays are in real dialogue with one another. … this is a volume of uncommon thematic coherence and all together a superb piece of scholarship.” (Flora Cassen, The Medieval Review, 2016)&nbsp;

Insgesamt liefert Groß mit seiner Kommentierung für den Bereich des BerHG einen kurzen, fokussierten und fundierten Überblick über das weite Gebiet. Im Schwerpunktbereich der PKH und VKH liefert er dagegen einen sehr detaillierten und ausführlichen, fokussierten Überblick. Das Werk eignet sich daher uneingeschränkt für denjenigen, der sich thematisch insbesondere mit diesen beiden Bereichen befassen muss.
Dipl.-Rechtspfleger Stefan Lissner in: Der Deutsche Rechtspfleger 10/2018

Eine praxisgerechte Kommentierung aller für den Bereich der BerHi, PKH und VKH maßgeblichen Vorschriften.
RVGreport 3/2018

Insgesamt liefert Groß mit seiner Kommentierung für den Bereich des BerHG einen kurzen, fokussierten Überblick, im Bereich der PKH und VKH einen detaillierten und allumfassenden Überblick über das Gebiet ... Das Werk stellt zwischenzeitlich einen Klassiker dar und gehört als Standardwerk in jedes mit dem Thema befasste Büro.
Stefan Lissner, Dipl.-Rechtspfleger, in: Der Deutsche Rechtspfleger 7/2016

Wer sich über das Recht der Beratungs-, Prozesskosten- und Verfahrenskostenhilfe informieren will, ist mit der Neuauflage des Werks von Groß bestens bedient.
RVGreport 5/2016

Der Kommentar gibt auf alle wichtigen Fragen, die auf dem Gebiet des Kostenhilferechts in der Praxis aufkommen können, fundierte Antworten. Der Kommentar ist für Richter, Rechtspfleger und Rechtsanwälte gleichermaßen ein nützliches und unbedingt zu empfehlendes Arbeitsmittel.
Rechtsanwältin Marion Andrae auf: http://dierezensenten.blogspot.de 12.7.2016

Dem nach den Themen Beratungshilfe und Prozess-/Verfahrenskostenhilfe suchenden Leser ist der vorliegende Kommentar als hervorragendes und unverzichtbares Werk zu empfehlen.
Dipl.-Rechtspfleger (FH) Marco Stoll, Justizamtsrat, Bezirksrevisor am Landgericht Saarbrücken

Die Anschaffung des handlichen Kommentars ist jedem zu empfehlen, der auf diesem Gebiet tätig ist. Die Verbindung der drei Rechtsgebiete in einem Kommentar erweist sich als sinnvoll, da diese durch Gesetzesverweisungen eng miteinander verknüpft sind. Der Leser erhält in nur einem Werk die für die Praxis benötigten, wesentlichen Informationen - und das zu einem äußerst moderaten Preis.
RAin Dr. Carmen Silvia Hergenröder in: fachbuchjournal 1/2014

Dieser brandaktuelle Kommentar mit gelungener Gewichtung und teils kritischer Würdigung der Neuerungen gibt praktische Antworten und vereinfacht die Bearbeitung kostenhilferechtlicher Sachverhalte.
RA Jens Jenau, Schloß Holte-Stukenbrock, in: AdVoice 1/2014

Der Kommentar wendet sich insbesondere an Rechtsanwälte, Richter, Rechtspfleger und Rechtsbeistände und kann allen empfohlen werden, da er eine gute Gesamtdarstellung der entsprechenden gesetzlichen Vorschriften vereinigt.
Diplom-Rechtspflegerin (FH) Renate Baronin von König, Berlin, in: Rechtspfleger Studienhefte 3/2014

Neben den ausführlichen Kommentierungen überzeugen mich vor allem die immer wieder eingeschobenen Bewertungen der Gesetzeslage. ... ist das Werk damit ein zuverlässiger Begleiter im Rechtsalltag und weiterhin mit Nachdruck zu empfehlen.
RAG Dr. Benjamin Krenberger, Landstuhl, auf: http://dierezensenten.blogspot.de 28.01.2014

Für Richter und Rechtspfleger, die tagtäglich über PKH/VKH/Beratungshilfe entscheiden müssen ist das Buch damit ein weit besserer weil ausführlicherer und praxisnäherer Kommentar als die normalen ZPO- oder FamFG-Kommentare. Entsprechendes gilt für die Anwaltschaft. Auch Berufsanfänger in der Anwaltschaft sollten nicht die Kosten für die Anschaffung des Buches scheuen - wer bei derart grundlegender Literatur spart, spart ganz klar an der falschen Stelle. Also: Unbedingte Kaufempfehlung.
RiAG Carsten Krumm auf: http://dierezensenten.blogspot.de 27.08.2012

Nicht zu Unrecht ist das Buch ein Standardwerk der angesprochenen Rechtsfragen. Für die Gerichte, die Rechtspfleger und die Rechtsanwälte ist das Werk unverzichtbar.

“In this well-researched and wide-ranging study, Tim Fulford joins critics such as Jeffrey Cox, Jon Mee and Paul Magnuson who instead see Romantic writing as a collaborative endeavour, investigating small writing communities (pejoratively dubbed ‘schools’ by Romantic-era reviewers) or twosomes. … Romantic Poetry and Literary Coteries displays an impressive command of material with admirable alertness to the effects on the writers’ work of the ‘micro-historical’ as well as larger-scale social and political developments … .” (Kim Wheatley, Review of English Studies, Vol. 67, June, 2016)

The Dialect of the Tribe

Romantic Poetry and Literary Coteries

"Writing Australian Unsettlement is a daring and remarkable study of intertextuality and appropriation as poetic tools. Disassembling and reassembling a variety of generic models, he demonstrates with the greatest aplomb how such contemporary techniques as collage, recycling, visualization, and translation are currently reanimating the field of Australian poetry. Only a scholar who is himself a discerning poet could have brought it off so elegantly." - Marjorie Perloff, Emeriti Professor of English, Stanford University, USA

"A brilliantly original piece of critical and scholarly work, Writing Australian Unsettlement is intellectually adventurous, investigating and challenging foundational assumptions of the literary and postcolonial fields. Drawing from an eclectic range of source material and theorists, Michael Farrell makes a major contribution to the rethinking of the postcolonial paradigm as it is currently happening around the globe." - Philip Mead, Professor of Australian Literature, University of Western Australia

An Introduction to Information Science

"This book will be a game-changer for the study of modern American poetry. It argues for the first time that there is a century-long progressive tradition of poetic efforts to create an American voice and subject position that is fundamentally international in its scope and political/aesthetic positioning. Because its historical reach is so wide and its thesis so timely, it deserves a wide audience." - Cary Nelson, Emeritus Professor of English, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA

"Dealing with widely- and under-read poets in the age of liberalism and neoliberalism, this impressive study is an essential addition to the history of poetic 'tradition.' Following (and complicating) such formations of 'tradition' as the avant-garde (Perloff), 'opposing poetries' (Lazer), and marginalization (Moten, DuPlessis), Spahr has brilliantly excavated our tradition of politically committed poetry. No tradition could feel more necessary now." - Jennifer Ashton, Associate Professor of English, University of Illinois at Chicago, USA
