Reviews
This material is invaluable, not least of all for documenting the survival of the angelic hierarchies described by the Pseudo-Dionysius in Protestant culture and not just in Milton. ... his depth of insight and genuine perspicacity in the end make for an unusually rich book that thoughtful readers will want to return to time and again. * Catherine Gimelli Martin, Literature and Theology *
