Reviews

'[T]he studies in this collection not only pay homage to the lasting influence and inspiration of Professor Azevedo as teacher, advisor, tutor, and mentor to his students, but they are also of uniformly high quality. The essays thus offer readers valuable new insights into various dimensions of Spanish and Portuguese linguistics.' - Hispania
