Mediterranean: A Cultural Landscape
"...there is something irresistible about Matvejevic's pointillist picture..."  --New Republic"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."  --Dallas Morning News"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..."  --New York Times Book Review
