“an important book [...] the English translation in particular shows the special nature of Weyerman's expansion and appropriation. For the Weyerman beginner, the anthology is an infectious introduction. [...] Thanks to De Vries, Weyerman and his virtuoso style are given a place of honor in European literature. [...] His portrayal of Weyerman as a satirist and moralist is illuminating.” Peter Altena in Mededelingen van de Stichting Jacob Campo Weyerman
