Raktažodžiai:
This latest volume of 'The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Jonathan Swift' is the first fully annotated edition of Swift's Irish prose writings from 1726 to 1737. Works in this volume include the famous A Modest Proposal, the acerbic A Short View of the State of Ireland, Swift's contributions to The Intelligencer, and other prose pieces of satire, polemic and intervention into contemporary Irish politics. Most of these works have never previously been published with full scholarly annotation, or with acomplete and textually authoritative apparatus. This volume offers a comprehensive introduction, setting Swift's writings of the period into their full historical, political and economic context. In addition to a critical introduction and appendices, there is also an up-to-date bibliography. The volume enables Swift's role as a political and social commentator in the years after the publication of Gulliver's Travels to be understood with new clarity.

Recenzijos

' hugely and lastingly impressive.' James Ward, The Review of English Studies 'I predict Swift studies are going show a major up-tick, owing to these new volumes. Many young people with access to research libraries are going to find their way to the Dean by this route, and they're going to learn a lot along the way. So I say hats off to the entire editorial staff of Struldbruggs at Luggnagg University, for their unfathomable erudition and tireless labor. Depend on it, Sir, this Swift is going to last a hundred years.' Anthony Madrid, RHINO Poetry
