Book Description
This volume contains the complete and definitive texts of virtually all of Swift's major works, as well as a generous selection of his poetry and other writings. Included are Gulliver's Travels, A Tale of a Tub, The Battle of the Books, A Discourse Concerning the Mechanical Operation of the Spirit, numerous essays and other prose pieces, and poems, among them several that are rarely reprinted. All of the texts are scrupulously edited and annotated.
A wide range of background materials is presented, including correspondence between Swift and members of his circle and observations by his contemporaries. The critical essays offer evaluations by Norman O.Brown, Samuel Holt Monk, Allan Blooom, Nigel Dennis, Edward W.Rosenheim, Jr., A.E.Dyson, William Frost, C.J.Rawson, Kathleen Williams, Martin Price, Robert M.Adams, and Jay Arnold Levine. An annotated bibliogoraphy guides the reader to important works for further study.
About the series: Each Norton Critical Edition includes an authoritative text, contextual and source materials, and a wide range of interpretations - from contemporary perspectives to the most current critical theory - as well as a bibliography and, in most cases, a chronology of the author's life and work.
