Críticas:

"...lively and provocative..." Virginia Quarterly Review

"[Conley] is very convincing. We are taken through a labyrinth of puns, amphibolies, alliterations, symmetries, inversions, analogies, and in a variety of tones. We are gradually won over, in spite of the difficulty of the text. Repetitive patterns and the author's insistence, backed by a solid method of demonstration, work. Moreover, this book is very well documented. Numerous notes reveal a mine of information embracing all points of view on the letter. Conley's historical and critical approaches to the subject bear witness to his scholarship." Danielle Raquidel, French Review

"...a unique and highly creative work, full of erudition, striking and persuasive interpretations, and daringly creative play with and through Renaissance texts. Many readers will be enthralled, some outraged, and none bored by Conley's willingness to follow the 'screen memories,'... Conley's willingness to take risks and his prodigious ability both to perceive the potential recombination of graphic material and to relate detail to large semantic units make The Graphic Unconscious a rewarding and refreshing book." John D. Lyons, Renaissance Quarterly
