"Spain was demonized as the political and religious other in early modern England, and this perception of universal resentment has continued to cloud historiography [...] Thus, the intention of Exile, Diplomacy and Texts: Exchanges between Iberia and the British Isles, 1500–1767 is to focus on exchange rather than confrontation between the Iberian Peninsula and the British Isles, in particular to explore how religious, cultural, and diplomatic encounters also existed.""Overall, these contributions provide a window not just into early modern English Jesuit activities, but more specifically how they interacted with their host nation, in this case Spain, and navigated the unpredictabilities of exile. It is a welcome line of investigation and one that deserves to be followed further, this book giving glimpses of future research routes." James E. Kelly, Durham University, in Journal of Jesuit Studies 8, pp. 671-704
