| John Beattie, the pre-eminent historian of English crime and punishment, has already been honoured with an excellent Festschrift. |
| Many aspects of his prodigious career are treated in the tributes offered by his friends, fans and collaborators for this Festschrift assembled to honour his 70th year. |
| This is a superior Festschrift, filled with fresh ideas, and eminently well deserved. |
| Overall, however, this festschrift is thoughtfully compiled and well written, on topics of considerable variety and importance, thus extending its shelf life beyond its immediate celebratory purpose. |
| The documentary section is dominated by a complete translation of the 1912 Festschrift, the first discrete publication devoted to Schoenberg. |
| A Festschrift in celebration of his sixtieth birthday was recently published. |
