From the rear cover
"Carlo Ginzburg weaves a spell-binding web of learning and surprises as he explores the question of truth in history and fiction and his own multiple engagement with the past. Whether dealing with Montaigne's cannibals, Italian shamans, or anti-Semitic forgeries, Threads and Traces is a powerful and moving statement of the stakes in historical knowledge from one of our greatest historians." --Natalie Zemon Davis, author of Trickster Travels: A Sixteenth-Century Muslim Between Worlds
Previous Praise for Carlo Ginzburg
"Ginzburg is a historian with an insatiable curiosity, who pursues even the faintest of clues with all the zest of a born detective until every fragment of evidence can be fitted into place." --J.H. Elliott, New York Review of Books
"Carlo Ginzburg has many claims to be considered the outstanding European historian of the generation which came of age in the late Sixties. Certainly few have equalled him in originality, variety and audacity." --Perry Anderson, London Review of Books
"Ginzburg's scholarship is dazzling and profound." --Publisher's Weekly
