Elliott, "New York Review of Books" "Carlo Ginzburg has many claims to be considered the outstanding European historian of the generation which came of age in the late Sixties. Certainly few have equalled him in originality, variety and audacity." --Perry Anderson, "London Review of Books" "Ginzburg's scholarship is dazzling and profound." --"Publisher's Weekly"
