The Protestant Monastery

The Protestant Monastery: or, a Complaint against the Brutality of the Present Age is a 1726 pamphlet by Daniel Defoe.

[2] Similarly to Every-body's Business, Is No-body's Business (1725), Parochial Tyranny (1727), Augusta Triumphans (1728) and Second Thoughts are Best (1729), it was published under the pseudonym of Andrew Moreton.

[1] Defoe did not sign his name to the majority of his works.

[3] He preferred them to be published anonymously or under one of his pen names.

[3] This choice was "sometimes" made "to conceal his authorship or to stimulate sales, but more characteristically to establish a point of view".
