    So there's a rather mean review of Susan Oosthuizen's _Emergence of the English_ published in the latest issue of The Antiquaries Journal. I won't link it, you can go look it up yourself if you like. Normally I wouldn't think anything of this, bad reviews happen, BUT... (1/6)

        ...Oosthuizen has been one of the senior scholars most vocally in favor of ditching the term 'Anglo-Saxon,' and the reviewer, John Hines, drafted that awful letter in support of keeping the term last year. (2/6)

        In other words, this is a politically-motivated book review entirely for the purpose of denigrating and discrediting a perceived opponent. (3/6)

        I should mention here that _Emergence_ has been incredibly well-received otherwise, so this is not an example of ensuring rigorous scholarship or academic excellence. (favorable review attached as example) (4/6)https://gesteofrobinhood.com/2019/04/10/no-longer-a-dark-age-susan-oosthuizens-the-emergence-of-the-english-2019/ …

        Instead it's just unwarranted hostility of the kind that makes academia so slow to change. If a senior scholar like Oosthuizen can be targeted like this, what's the message to ECRs who want to speak out? To BIPOC? It's "shut up or we'll tear apart your work." (5/6)

        This is how the curmudgeonly side of academia gatekeeps ideas and worldviews it doesn't like, and it sucks. (6/6)

        Which is ridiculous as well as rude, it is a very good book, well written and valuable.

        The 2020 ed? I'm just confused because it seems he did John Blair in the most recent issue online

        Yes, 2020 -- you can find it on the FirstView page I think
