"The author has provided us with a valuable resource for understanding the long and varied history of the interpretation of the Song of Songs."—Manuscripta

"[Matter] offers an original translation of Canticles from the Vulgate Latin that is very fine. And her focus allows her to illuminate the existence of a "shadow" Origen in the commentary tradition, the very idea of which I find fascinating."—Studies in the Age of Chaucer
