Williamson’s commentary is a magisterial reference work. The overall redaction-critical approach to the Book of Isaiah as a whole and in its parts provides an interpretative framework in which thousands of detailed comments are offered. Notable is the full account that is taken of the linguistic information now available from the Dead Sea Scrolls for the transmission of the text of Isaiah. The exegesis engages principally with western scholarship of the last several generations but there are also multiple references to earlier Jewish and Christian engagements with the book. For serious readers of Isaiah this commentary is indispensable.

'... valuable for expanding, or perhaps even changing, the lens through which Sienese art is viewed.' CAA Reviews 
'Although addressing a wide range of topics, the essays are methodologically similar in their analysis of images, buildings, and forms as instruments of political agendas. The volume is coherent, a pleasure to read, and presents many new ideas about both major monuments and lesser-known works.' The Medieval Review 
'Art as Politics in Late Medieval and Renaissance Siena makes bold moves. One would not expect a book by that title to steer around perhaps the most famously political images of premodern Europe, the government allegories painted by Ambrogio Lorenzetti in Siena’s Palazzo Pubblico. Further, taking a cue from Chinese painting, editors Timothy Smith and Judith Steinhoff call for a nonlinear view of artistic development in Siena and a turn away from stylistic innovation as a primary qualification for Sienese objects of art historical study.'

Patriarchal Moments invites us to read a host of classic texts – religious and literary, philosophical and political – in the company of specialists whose perspicacious interpretations probe the tension between normative frameworks and actual social and political practice. With its salutary reminder that patriarchalism is above all a way of understanding social and political order, Patriarchal Moments offers a compelling series of contextualized analyses that explore  the different kinds of personalized authority – male over female, father over child, government over families  – that constitute the several, interrelated faces of patriarchal power. As such, it invites us to consider the emotional purchase that patriarchal visions of familial and political authority have exercised in both past and present, offering ways to rethink the obstacles that feminists face in their efforts to  re-shape both familial and political spheres of life.

Praise for the October Daye seriesNew York Times and&#160;USA Today&#160;bestselling series"The&#160;top of my urban-paranormal series list! I am so invested in the worldbuilding and the characters.... The romance is real and awesome, but doesn't overshadow the adventure." &mdash;Felicia Day"The 13th outing for Daye is&#160;just as fresh and exciting as the first. McGuire has built a complex world, where seemingly loose ends are woven tightly into the series. Highly recommended."&#160;&mdash;Library Journal&#160;(starred)"October has evolved from an embittered loner into a fierce protector of her chosen family, making for a richly emotional tale filled with series-standard fare of adventure, intrigue, and blood-soaked mayhem."&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly"The worldbuilding in this series has astonishing depth, and&#160;Night and Silence&#160;is no exception&mdash;12 books in, McGuire is still giving readers&#160;fascinating new pieces of the Faerie puzzle."&#160;&mdash;Booklist"I can't believe McGuire can come up with&#160;another adventure as riveting as this one. But then I say that after every book in this series."&#160;&mdash;SFRevu"McGuire has never lacked for courage in her writing.... The&#160;phenomenally inventive October Daye series showcases her narrative daring&#160;and ingenuity beautifully." &mdash;RT Reviews"Prepare to be dazzled.... Like the best of urban fantasy, with each reveal and mystery solved, Toby's world grows ever more enticing.&#160;As seductive as Faerie itself, this is one series I could never give up." &mdash;All Things Urban Fantasy"These books are&#160;like watching half a season of your favorite television series all at once.... More than anything else, it's the fun of it all that's kept me returning to McGuire's books and to this series." &mdash;SF Signal&#160;"The plot is strong, the characterization is terrific, the tragedies hurt...and&#160;McGuire's usual beautiful writing and dark humor&#160;are present and accounted for. This has become one of my favorite urban fantasy series." &mdash;Fantasy Literature

Eines der besten deutschen Bücher zur Zeitgeschichte.
Jens Bisky, Süddeutsche Zeitung
Hertles Chronik sei »ein aufregendes Buch, erzählte Zeitgeschichte, die sich – obwohl Ergebnis seriöser Forschung – zuweilen liest wie ein absurdes Stück«, hieß es 1996 im Tagesspiegel. Dem ist nichts hinzuzufügen.

Cecília Mello’s book is a breakthrough. It clears the mists around Jia Zhangke’s famously “impure” realism, showing how it is shot through with Chinese aesthetics drawn from wuxia martial arts, Chinese opera performance, gardening, painting, and more.

"A memorable line--"It was her idea to tie up the nun."-- launches the narrative with the force of a cannon as it switches back and forth between the present and the past. The immigrant&#39;s story might be well-traveled ground, but Engel (The Veins of the Ocean, 2016) constructs a layered narrative outlining how the weight of every seemingly minor choice systematically cements into a crushing predicament... Lively folktales of the Muisca peoples punctuate Engel&#39;s remarkable novel as it illuminates the true costs of living in the shadows. Told by a chorus of voices and perspectives, this is as much an all-American story as it is a global one."&nbsp;--*starred*&nbsp;Booklist "An outstanding novel of migration and the Colombian diaspora... Engel&#39;s sharp, unflinching narrative teems with insight and dazzles with a confident, slyly sophisticated structure. This is an impressive achievement."&nbsp;--*starred*&nbsp;Publishers Weekly "Powerful and poignant,&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;crystallizes the questions we are asking today about migration, family, and our vision of the future. Patricia Engel has written a memorable and brutally honest response to the simplistic notion of what constitutes the American Dream."&nbsp;--Maaza Mengiste, author of&nbsp;The Shadow King "Infinite Country&nbsp;is both a timely and timeless novel. In beautiful prose, Patricia Engel brings to life the courage and complexity of the immigrant experience, illuminating the hardship of life between two countries and two languages, and the search for family and belonging."&nbsp;--Jennifer Clement, author of&nbsp;Gun Love "Everything Patricia Engel writes is lit up from the inside with beauty and power. Her prose is gorgeous and her characters are always achingly alive.&nbsp;--Carolina&nbsp;de Robertis, author of&nbsp;Cantoras "What a breathtaking novel this is, about family, forgiveness, and love while contending with the terrifying unknowns of being an immigrant in a merciless era. There is mercy, however, in every scene of&nbsp;Infinite Country--the kind of profound, understated mercy that manifests in exceptional works of fiction. Patricia Engel is a tremendous writer, and&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;is her best novel yet."&nbsp;--Idra Novey, author of&nbsp;Those Who Knew "A tender, beautifully written, and deeply transporting story springing with love and hope. The questions at the heart of&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;are some of the most urgent of our time: Who is allowed in? How will I be known? What is home? Clever, strong, and born searching, Talia hooked me the second she decided to tie up that nun."&nbsp;--Dina Nayeri, author of&nbsp;The Ungrateful Refugee  "Patricia Engel has an elegant voice. But that finesse has a way of making the shocks and surprises in her fiction more stunning.&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;is her most satisfying work. You won&#39;t be sorry. Well, you will be sorry when it ends."&nbsp;--Luis Alberto Urrea, author of&nbsp;House of Broken Angels&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Devil&#39;s Highway "A stunning new story that follows a mixed-status Colombian family... This is an urgent look at the devastating effects that separation can wreck on one family." --She Reads, "Most Anticipated Latinx Books of 2021" "This is Engel at her best... This is the kind of book that allows you to see and feel the whole issue, offering an intimate perspective of an experience that touches and impacts us all...&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;has us feeling all the emotions!"&nbsp;--Angie Cruz,&nbsp;Undomesticated Mag&#39;s "Most Anticipated for 2021" "This book broke me in the best way possible... At the heart of&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;is the love of Elena and Mauro, of their family, and of their children trying to make their way... The ending will absolutely move you to tears." --Alma, "Favorite Books for Winter 2021"  "Patricia Engel is a wonder; her novels are marvels of exquisite control and profound and delicately evoked feeling.&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;knocked me out with its elegant and lucid deconstruction of yearning, family, belonging, and sacrifice. This is a book that speaks into the present moment with an oracle&#39;s devastating coolness and clarity."&nbsp;--Lauren Groff, author of&nbsp;Florida&nbsp;and&nbsp;Fates and Furies "Engel&#39;s sweeping novel gives voice to three generations of a Colombian family torn apart by man-made borders... Gorgeously woven through with Andean myths and the bitter realities of undocumented life,&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;tells a breathtaking story of the unimaginable prices paid for a better life."&nbsp;--Esquire "At once a sweeping love story and tragic drama,&nbsp;Infinite Country... promises to deliver what&nbsp;American Dirt&nbsp;could not: an authentic vision of what the American Dream looks like in a nationalistic country."&nbsp;--Elle "A gorgeous, moving novel."&nbsp;--New York Post "Clear, moving, and perfectly calibrated,&nbsp;Infinite Country&nbsp;follows the members of one mixed-immigration status family as they navigate dreams, distance, and the bonds of love and memory. Patricia Engel is a stunning writer with astonishing talents."&nbsp;--Lisa Ko, author of&nbsp;The Leavers "I&#39;ve admired Engel&#39;s writing a long time, and her new book deepened that admiration. An exquisitely told story of family, war, and migration, this is a novel our increasingly divided country wants and needs to read."&nbsp;--R.O. Kwon, Electric Literature "Books by Women of Color in 2021" "Engel&#39;s vital story of a divided Colombian family is a book we need to read... The rare immigrant chronicle that is as long on hope as it is on heartbreak."&nbsp;--*starred*&nbsp;Kirkus Reviews
