Both this website and Nicholas Hammond's book, The Powers of Sound and Song in Early Modern France, have been receiving reviews from journals and websites from a wide range of disciplines. The book was awarded the runner-up prize for the 2020 R. Gapper Book Prize, for the best book published the previous year on any aspect of French Studies.
Most recently, very favourable reviews have appeared in the Journal of Modern History by the 18th-century scholar Laura Mason, in the prestigious journal Renaissance Quarterly, and another review by leading historian Mark Greengrass in French History.
A whole issue of H-France Forum devoted to both book and website appeared in December 2020.
