Mediterranean: A Cultural Landscape
Mediterranean: A Cultural Landscape
Editorial Reviews
New York Times Book Review
"Not a work of scholarship or a travelogue in any current sense; it is associative and impressionistic in the manner of a medieval text-an effect reinforced by the physical qualities of this elegant edition, with its duotone illustrations..."
Dallas Morning News
"Neither exclusively narrative history nor strictly economic analysis, neither sociological interpretation nor literary explication alone, Matvejevic's scholarly encyclopedia of all things Mediterranean is all of these and more."
