Reviews / Votes
"The handbook will doubtlessly provide an enormously useful and stimulating reference text, especially within literary studies but also across disciplines. It is due to the convincing overall design of the book and the high quality
of the individual contributions that the volume manages to fulfil the expectations raised by the label 'handbook.'"
Marion Gymnich in: Anglistik 1/2021, 188-189.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
