Some even cast their lot with foreign monarchs rather than wait for their own rulers to have a change of heart. This book studies the relationship forged by English exiles and Philip II of Spain. It shows how these expatriates, known as the \"Spanish Elizabethans,\" used the most powerful tools at their disposal--paper, pens, and presses--to incite war against England during the \"messianic\" phase of Philip's reign, from the years leading up to the Grand Armada until the king's death in 1598.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFreddy Cristóbal Domínguez looks at English Catholic propaganda within its international and transnational contexts. He examines a range of long-neglected polemical texts, demonstrating their prominence during an important moment of early modern politico-religious strife and exploring the transnational dynamic of early modern polemics and the flexible rhetorical approaches required by exile. He concludes that while these exiles may have lived on the margins, their books were central to early modern Spanish politics and are key to understanding the broader narrative of the Counter-Reformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeeply researched and highly original, \u003ci\u003eRadicals in Exile\u003c\/i\u003e makes an important contribution to the study of religious exile in early modern Europe.
