"The Fortunes of the Courtier, original, spare and stimulating, is a model monograph." The London Review of Books
"Burke's painstaking research and engaging speculations make it much easier to see Castiglione's position clearly." Times Higher Education Supplement
"A readable oscillation between the generalised and the particular." Parergon
