Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Tale of a Tub: The Battle of the Books and Other Satires Though in 1699 the outside world was ignorant of his existence, Swift was known to the wide circle of Temple's acquaintance as a man of great promise, and, to a select few, not only of promise but of performance. He had already eshed his pen: he had written verses - though these called forth Dryden's oft - quoted remark, Cousin Swift, you will never be a poet, a prophecy soon to be falsified; and he had prepared Temple's letters and memoirs for publication. But this work counts as nothing when it is remembered that he had composed The Battle of the Books and The Tale of a Tub, which, written in 1697 and circulated in manuscript, did not receive the honour of publication until seven years after their inception.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Tale of a Tub and the Battle of the Books Now I have two words in my own defence against this objection. First, I am far from granting the number of writers. 'a nuisance to our nation, having strenuously maintained the contrary in several parts of the following discourse. Secondly, I do not well understand the justice of this proceeding because I observe many of these polite prefaces to be not only from the same hand, but from those who are most voluminous in their several productions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Tale of a Tub Jonathan Swift - A Tale of a Tub was the first major work written by Jonathan Swift, arguably his most difficult satire and perhaps his most masterly. The Tale is a prose parody divided into sections each delving into the morals and ethics of the English. Composed between 1694 and 1697, it was eventually published in 1704. It was long regarded as a satire on religion, and has famously been attacked for that, starting with William Wotton.The "tale" presents a consistent satire of religious excess, while the digressions are a series of parodies of contemporary writing in literature, politics, theology, Biblical exegesis, and medicine. The overarching parody is of enthusiasm, pride, and credulity. At the time it was written, politics and religion were still closely linked in England, and the religious and political aspects of the satire can often hardly be separated. "The work made Swift notorious, and was widely misunderstood, especially by Queen Anne herself who mistook its purpose for profanity." It "effectively disbarred its author from proper preferment within the church" but is considered one of Swift's best allegories, even by himself. It was enormously popular, but Swift believed it damaged his prospect of advancement in the Church of England.
