Women on the Yiddish Stage
Edited by Alyssa Quint and Amanda Miryem-Khaye Seigel 
Studies In Yiddish 19

  • ‘Women and men have shared the stage in equal numbers practically since its inception... Moreover, participation of women extends behind the scenes, where they have also served as directors, impresarios, and creators. The topical, chronological, and geographic scope of the twelve essays in this pioneering collection is quite impressive. The theater personalities treated in this nicely illustrated volume include major stars alongside overlooked figures... Highly recommended for research libraries.’ — Zachary M. Baker, Association of Jewish Libraries Reviews 4.3, January 2024, 38-39

Out of Focus: Russia at the Margins
Catriona Kelly
Selected Essays 8

  • ‘For a collection of scholarly pieces, Out of Focus is a very personal project. Catriona Kelly presents a view of Russian culture that deliberately eschews Big History and looks instead at 'unconsidered trifles' and the experiences of marginal groups 'beyond the focus of Russian history as conventionally practised'.’ — Wendy Slater, Times Literary Supplement 16 June 2023
  • ‘Kelly’s pivot towards documenting the tiny details, daily intrigues, and cultural stereotypes dominant among both the Russian elites and ordinary people amounts to a genuinely new and illuminating view on Russian history. In this book she observes, not the tip of the historical iceberg, but the section lurking under the surface.’ — Valery Vyugin, Modern Language Review 119.2, 2024, 292-94 (full text online)
