Jesse Lander explores the development of the book in early modern England as both a physical object and a platform for debate and polemic. Wide-ranging in its consideration of texts, from Foxes Actes and Monuments, Miltons Areopagitica and Hamlet to ephemeral polemical pamphlets from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Inventing Polemic recasts the historical and theological contexts of early modern literature. This study is an important reconsideration of some of the most influential texts of early modern England.
