Brock (Washington and Lee University) &#8212; &#8220;This compellingly written book surveys anti-Anabaptist polemics in England from the Reformation to the Restoration. Waite deftly analyzes a wide range of printed texts to reveal the English attitude toward and caricature of &#8216;radical&#8217; reform movements in continental Europe. Yet this book is about much more than the use of Anabaptism as a rhetorical cudgel carved for various purposes over the course of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Instead, what Waite offers is a new window into the power &#8212; and unintended consequences &#8212; of fear, paranoia, and print in an age of demonization as much as reformation. <em>Anti-Anabaptist Polemics <\/em>is essential reading for scholars interested in the early modern polemics of hate and how they speak to our own moment of polarization and extremism.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gary K.
