italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Wow - thanks so much for that, it's exactly what I'm looking for!
I found most of it on Google Books:
http://books.google.com/books?id=68W257rxRiQC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs
_summary_r&cad=0#PPA157,M1
(or http://tinyurl.com/prayub )
but there are some pages not available on that site. Does anyone have access
to them?
Thanks so much,
David
