Miracles and the Pulp Press during the English Revolution

Jerome Friedman's 1993 UCL Press work — the principal scholarly treatment of the substantial mid-17th-century English pulp press engagement with miraculous and supernatural content. Friedman substantially documents the substantive role of broadsheets, ballads, and pamphlets in disseminating supernatural-prodigy content within the religious-political turbulence of the English Revolution period, providing substantive context for the substantial pamphlet tradition within which the 1678 Mowing Devil pamphlet operates.
