'This cumulative index of Shakespeare Survey - itself the size of a regular issue of the most authoritative European Shakespeare journal - is an absolute treat ... It is indispensable, and if you still think that the digital age has made such reference works redundant, consult an entry like 'E. M. W. Tillyard' and you will find that no computer search engine to date is able to give you such a detailed account of the critic in question.' Ton Hoenselaars, The Staple of News
