'The English Boccaccio is a splendid example of what can be done with the biography of a text or, in this case, of a corpus of texts.... This book stands already as a model for future scholarship on the reception, remediation, and translation of medieval authors and texts.'
- Yuri Cowan - SHARP News vol 25:01:2016'This beautifully produced, referenced and indexed volume covers an impressive range from the manuscript tradition to the popular book trade.'
- Anne O'Connor - Translation Studies September 2014'A monumental work that bridges synchronic and diachronic perspectives, manuscripts and print cultures, medieval and early modern studies, Italian studies, pre-modern and modern literary studies... I shall be hanging very close to my personal, unique, hard copy, as I know I will be coming back to it again and again.'
- Warren Boutcher - Italian Studies vol69:03:2014'Spanning seven centuries of editorial history, Armstrong's volume offers an invaluable contribution to students and teachers of Boccaccio, whether Italianists or Anglists, as well as to cultural and print historians.'
- Marina Della Putta Johnston - Modern Language Quarterly vol 110:01:2015'What emerges from this ambitious work, aside from admiration for Armstrong's scholarship and translation skills is a new vision of Boccaccio's relation to English literature.'
