“The intended readership of, according to the series editors’ foreword, ‘students, graduate students, teachers, scholars and advanced general readers’… will thus indeed find the Dictionary a helpful reference work, not least because its bibliography and the references in the longer articles direct them to relevant scholarship on Shelley and her works. This makes the Dictionary a good starting point for anyone engaging with Shelley’s better-known or indeed her less canonical works.” (Rebekka Rohleder, Anglia, Vol. 138 (4), 2020)
