Download or read book A Bibliography of the Writings of Jonathan Swift written by Herman Teerink and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is an analytic bibliography of the writings of Jonathan Swift, containing a listing of every known edition or issue of Swift's work down to the year 1814 (except for the section "Biography and Criticism" which extends from 1709 to 1895). In this revised edition, Herman Teerink has added full collations of the works referred to. In addition, the titles of many 18th century mutations or parodies of Swift have been included together with works which allude to Swift or his writings. Arthur H. Scouten, a University of Pennsylvania professor of English and author of many bibliographical articles on Swift, who has carried on Dr. Teerink's work and prepared this volume for press, has consulted 18th century scholars and bibliographers. With their advice, he has kept the original Teerink numbers, since they are the common reference numbers among Swift scholars and are listed in dealers' catalogues. Because the new material and arrangement put these numbers out of order, they have been listed in a table at the beginning of the book with all the pages they appear on. So that they will not have to be sought throughout the entire volume, all the Faulkner editions have been placed together and all the printings of Gulliver's Travels have been collected in one section, where they are arranged chronologically by country. A full physical description of all important books and pamphlets, including those discovered since 1937 (the first edition), has been provided. The work has been brought up-to-date with the bibliographical findings of Swift scholarship of the past twenty-five years. A number of pieces apocryphally attributed to Swift have been deleted or placed in the "Doubtful" section. Finally, entries of books and pamphlets containing contemporary comment on a work by Swift have been placed where Swift's work itself is entered. This book is especially rich in its listings of translations of Swift's works into foreign languages. Also, since the first edition (A Bibliography of the Writings in Prose and Verse of Jonathan Swift, D.D.) has long been out of print, this volume will be invaluable to book dealers, bibliophiles, and scholars, teachers, and students of English literature.

This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bibliography of the Writings of Jonathan Swift The revisions and additions which Dr. Teerink has made in the present work are as follows: (1) He has provided full physical de scriptions for all important books and pamphlets. (2) He has brought the work up to date by including the bibliographical find ings of Swift scholarship during the past twenty-five years and by listing books and pamphlets which he had not seen or known about in 1937. (3) He has removed a considerable number of pieces attributed to Swift, either by dropping them or by relegating them to the section entitled Doubtful. (4) He has detached books or pamphlets containing several pieces from Collected Works and placed them in other sections. (5) He has transferred entries of works containing some contemporary comment on a work by Swift from the end of the book to where the work by Swift has been entered. These are indeed substantial contributions and would seem to justify a second verdict from Prince Posterity. A statement needs to be made concerning the nature and extent of the editorial work done by Professor Scouten. He has verified all of the physical descriptions of the books and pamphlets that were contained in the Teerink Collection, now in the Library of the University of Pennsylvania, and has made minor reforms in using bibliographical symbols where Dr. Teerink gave a lengthier verbal account. In order to hold the work to one volume, he has arbitrarily cut off all entries after Sir Walter Scott's edition of 1814 (except under Biography and Criticism, where the entries extended to He has completed the replacement of contemporary criticism begun by Dr. Teerink. He has assigned numbers to new entries established by Dr. Teerink, has provided a table showing the location of all entries, and has made an index. He has silently omitted entries of some works not belonging in the Swift canon, particularly the John Bull pamphlets. In only one place has he re vised any entries; in the light of new information, he has rearranged those for Verses on the Death of Dr. Swift.

Download or read book Jonathan Swift written by Jonathan Swift and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative edition brings together a unique selection from the full range of Swift's fifty-year career--prose, poetry, and letters--to give the essence of his work and thinking. Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) is best known as the author of Gulliver's Travels, which alone would have secured his place in the history of English literature. But in addition to this classic fictional satire, Swift wrote numerous works concerning politics, religion, and Ireland, some savage, others humorous, all suffused with his tremendous wit and inventiveness. This anthology includes satirical works such as A Tale of a Tub and The Battle of the Books, political pamphlets, pieces for the popular press, poems, and a generous selection from Swift's correspondence. Presented chronologically, the anthology offers a new and clearer awareness of the unity as well as the complexity of Swift's vision, and the powerful bonds between disparate pieces.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Companion to Jonathan Swift is a specially commissioned collection of essays. Arranged thematically across a range of topics, this 2003 volume will deepen and extend the enjoyment and understanding of Jonathan Swift for students and scholars. The thirteen essays explore crucial dimensions of Swift's life and works. As well as ensuring a broad coverage of Swift's writing - including early and later works as well as the better known and the lesser known - the Companion also offers a way into current critical and theoretical issues surrounding the author. Special emphasis is placed on Swift's vexed relationship with the land of his birth, Ireland; and on his place as a political writer in a highly politicised age. The Companion offers a lucid introduction to these and other issues, and raises questions about Swift and his world. The volume features a detailed chronology and a guide to further reading.
