Perfect companion for my morning study sessions. The historical context alone makes it worth the price. Solid, if not essential.
This edition finally does the material justice. The language takes some getting used to, but it becomes part of the charm. If you're drawn to this subject, don't hesitate.
First purchase from this shop. It's become a regular reference in my practice. Every rereading turns up something I missed. A keeper.
Bought this as a gift for my sister and ended up ordering a second copy for myself. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. The material is presented clearly and the structure makes it easy to revisit key passages. Some archaic spellings slow things down. Recommended with reservations.
Grabbed this during a weekend order. The symbolism is layered and generous to patient readers. Well worth it.
