No doubt, a subset of medievalists will savor this little collection of essays because of its ideological aggressiveness* SEHEPUNKTE *
The case studies in this volume will be of particular interest to medieval literary scholars and art historians, but not only them. Reading it is also a pleasure, because you can tell how much reflection and effort has gone into the articles. [...] Extremely valuable. * Historischen Zeitschrift *
Bringing together voices from across literary studies, history, art history, and digital humanities, Slow Scholarship is a dynamic, frank, contribution to ongoing conversations in medieval studies and higher education. -- TOEBI Newsletter
Karkov and her contributors' full-throated recognition that academic performance, whether it be scholarship or instruction, needs time to age and mature seems both freeing and subversive. [The book's] honest and thorough look at an emerging scholarly approach makes it a worthwhile acquisition for any university library. * Studies in Medieval and Renaissance Teaching (SMART) *
Slow Scholarship fits into many research landscapes at once. It is also a courageously political book that does not shy away from making an intervention in the current state of academia. * SPECULUM *
