"""A timely collection that explores continuities and differences across anti-immigrant ideologies of the early modern period and the politics of Brexit's neo-nationalism. Mobilizing historicist and presentist approaches, this collection mines the fraught tensions entailed in forging ethnic and national identities at moments when the imagined value of 'European' collective identity is hotly contested."" --Marjorie Rubright, associate professor of English and director of the Kinney Center for Interdisciplinary Renaissance Studies at the University of Massachusetts Amherst"
