Product Description

Swift's Politics

A Study in Disaffection

A contextual reassessment of Swift's political writing concentrating on A Tale of a Tub and Gulliver's Travels.

Ian Higgins (Author)

9780521025683, Cambridge University Press

Paperback / softback, published 20 April 2006

248 pages

22.8 x 15.2 x 1.4 cm, 0.383 kg

'An exceptionally learned and persuasive study.' Brean S. Hammond, University College of Wales, Aberystwyth

Modern scholarship has represented Jonathan Swift as both an Old Whig and a non-Jacobite Tory. Ian Higgins' contextual reassessment of Swift's political writing and recorded opinion considers the interpretative problems they present. It explores the consonance of Swift's political writing with militant Jacobite Tory writing on affairs of Church and State, and demonstrates Swift's dissimilarity from the Old Whig writers with whom modern criticism has misleadingly identified him. Swift's writings of the 1690s, during the last four years of Queen Anne's reign]
