"To have so substantial a selection of Swift`s writings on Ireland and Irish affairs, in prose and verse, intelligently assembled, concisely introduced, and helpfully annotated by two distinguished Swift scholars will prove a considerable boon to students and teachers of Irish writing, postcolonial studies, and English literature alike."--Ian Campbell Ross, Professor of Eighteenth-Century Studies, Trinity College Dublin."This splendid volume represents the culmination of the work of an entire generation of Swift scholars, led by the two editors, to re-locate Swift in the Irish world in which he lived and worked for the vast majority of his politically-charged life. It brings together, in ways that no previous work does, a vast range of writings on Irish subjects. This book should be required reading for anyone with an interest in Swift and eighteenth-century Ireland."--Christopher Fox, Professor and Director, Keough-Naughton Institute for Irish Studies, University of Notre Dame."Deftly annotated to allow readers to understand the works` historical contexts and to identify contemporary references. The masterful introduction, written in a lucid, forceful style that recalls Swift`s own prose, knits the author`s verse and prose (some anthologized here for the first time) into a fabric that evokes the Dean as the Anglo-Irish master he is finally recognized to be."--Sean Shesgreen, Distinguished Research Professor of English Literature, Northern Illinois University and author of The Criers and Hawkers of London and Images of the Outcast.This edition presents Jonathan Swift`s most important Irish writings in both prose and verse, together with an introduction, head notes, and annotations that shed new light on the full context and significance of each piece. Familiar works such as "Gulliver`s Travels" and "A Tale of a Tub" acquire new and deeper meanings when considered within the Irish frameworks presented in the edition.
