Reviews:

• One of the rewarding features of this volume is that it gathers together a variety of contributors, both established scholars from different fields of study and cultural practitioners, bridging the artificial divide between the academic and the creative and establishing a fruitful dialogue between them... the essays are not only an enjoyable read but they are also rigorous in their scholarly apparatus... showing impeccable editorial work by Professor Zenia Sacks DaSilva. The volume is a valuable contribution to the area of cross-cultural studies. Its scope of reference and disciplinary span provide an excellent source of inspiration for both teaching and further study.
