This study examines the role of anti-Catholic rhetoric in late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century England. It discusses writers from Middleton, Milton and Marvell to Swift, Defoe and Fielding, as well as numerous pamphleteers, crossing traditional boundaries between poetry and prose, literature and polemic, the Reformation and the Augustan age.
