Drapier, T.R.D.J.S.D.O.P.I.I. (The Reverend Doctor Jonathan Switft, Dean of Partick's in Ireland) Irish author and journalist, dean of St. Patrick's Cathedral (Dublin) from 1713, the foremost prose satirist in English language. Swift became insane in his last years, but until his death he was known as Dublin's foremost citizen. Among Swift's best known works is Gulliver's Travels (1726), where the stories of Gulliver's experiences among dwarfs and giants are best known. Swift gave to these journeys an air of authenticity and realism and many contemporary readers believed them to be true. "They look upon fraud as a greater crime than theft, and therefore seldom fail to punish it with death; for they alledge, that care and vigilante, with a very common understanding, may preserve a man's goods from thieves; but honesty hat no fence against superior cunning: and since it is necessary that there should be a perpetual intercourse of buying and selling, and dealing upon credit; where fraud is permitted or connived at, or hath no Law to punish it, the honest dealer is always undone and the knave gets the advantage." (from Gulliver's Travels: 'A Voyage to Lilliput') "As the common forms of good manners were intended for regulating the conduct of those who have weak understandings; so they have been corrupted by the persons for whose use they were contrived. For these people have fallen into a needless and endless way of multiplying ceremonies, which have been extremely troublesome to those who practice them, and insupportable to everyone else: insomuch that wise men are often more uneasy at the over civility of these refiners, than they could possibly be in the conversations of peasants or mechanics."

Jonathan Swift Fatherless from the beginning of his life, and motherless for some of his crucial formative years, Swift, although he had political ambitions earlier on, settled for being the Dean of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Ireland. There are those (I suppose I should be counted among them) who concluded Swift was a neurotic with a "excremental vision." Swift claimed to "hate and detest that animal called man," but to "heartly love John, Peter, Thomas, and so forth." He was buried beneath the Latin epitaph he composed himself, which in English reads: "He has gone where savage indignation can lacerate his heart no more." Swift's most famous work, of course, was Gullivers Travels , or, as it is more formally known, Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World, by Lemuel Gulliver ; it is a satiric masterpiece; it satirizes man's abuse of human reason as reflected in his political, social and academic institutions; at best, man is foolish; at worst, he is nothing more than an ape; ... it is a bitter denunciation of mankind; ... [a reflection] on man's corruption of his highest attribute, reason." ( Benet's Swift's works are available on the 'NET [UP] [THE FICTION WRITERS] [BIOGRAPHIES JUMP PAGE] [HOME] March, 1998.

The Age of George III Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) Jonathan Swift was born in Dublin in 1667. He was the son of an English-born lawyer; he grew up to be an Anglican clergyman, poet, satirist and political writer. Between 1691 and 99, he lived in Moor Park, Surrey, working as the secretary of the retired diplomat sir William Temple; however, Swift spent 1695-6 as vicar of Kilroot in County Antrim. In 1700 he became vicar of Laracor in County Meath. Politically, Swift began as a Whig ; he abandoned them because of their failure to uphold the established Church; in 1710 he accepted the patronage of the Tory Robert Harley. Swift wrote highly effective propaganda for Harley's administration (1710-14), especially against the continued war with France. As a result of this work, Swift was appointed Dean of St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin in 1713; he did not receive the English appointment for which he had hoped. When the Tories were forced from power with the accession of the House of Hanover in 1714, Swift was obliged to return to Ireland. Swift invariably defended the liberties of the Anglican minority in Ireland, insisting that they were 'Englishmen abroad'. Swift's writings include: The Tale of a Tub (1704), a religious allegory that lampoons both Catholicism and dissent

Jonathan Swift, 1667-1745 Famous Irish poet, pamphleteer, satirist and wit of Augustan Age. He was educated (more or less) at Trinity College, Dublin. In the aftermath of the 1689 Jacobite rebellion in Ireland, Swift found shelter in England, under the auspices of Sir William Temple, a prominent diplomat and statesman. Swift served as secretary to Temple for the next ten years. In the process, he earned his M.A. at Oxford, was ordained into the Episcopalian Church of Ireland and was charged with the tutorship of Temple's young ward, Esther Johnson, a.k.a. "Stella". After Temple died in 1699, Swift moved back to Ireland, working at various posts in the Church. In 1704, two satirical pieces Tale of the Tub and Battle of the Books earned him some renown (and some enemies). Returning to England intermittently, he became intimate with the Augustan wits and literary men of the day Addison, Steele, Pope and Congreve. Although a lifelong supporter of the Whigs, the growing chasm between Whigs and the Church led Swift, in 1708, to launch a series of pamphlet attacks on the Whigs. By 1710, Swift had switched over the Tories completely and put his skills at their disposal. Swift took over The Examiner , a Tory rag, and, with a couple of 1711 pamphlets, helped turn to the tide of English public opinion against the "Whig" War of Spanish Succession.

35. A Brief Biography Of Dr Jonathan Swift (1667 - 1745) Jonathan Swift (16671745) by GG Urwin, MA, Ph.D. (London) from HumoristsOf The Eighteenth Century (1962). He was an Irishman http://www.ourcivilisation.com/smartboard/shop/swift/about.htm

Jonathan Swift by G.G. Urwin, M.A., Ph.D. (London) from " Humorists Of The Eighteenth Century Having entered the Church, chiefly for the splendid posts it could offer, he soon obtained a minor office at St. Patrick's Cathedral; but his views of the Whig party were too freely expressed in various pamphlets, and his chances of promotion from that quarter ended. Therefore he threw in his lot with the Tories, came to London, and became the most active, virulent, arrogant and assertive of pamphleteers. He was the leading light of The Examiner , which might be termed the official party paper; he mixed with such outstanding Tories as Bolingbroke, Prior, Pope and Gay; he was largely responsible for moulding enlightened public opinion on the great political issues of the day. His reward was promotion to the Deanery of St. Patrick's. Obviously he could expect a bishopric, or even an archbishopric. The death of Queen Anne and the uninterrupted domination of the Whigs ruined all his hopes. When he returned to his post in 1714, he knew that all his brilliant contacts would be seen only during intermittent visits, and that they, like him, could form nothing more than an unpopular opposition to the government. Gulliver's Travels Swift had learnt much from Daniel Defoe in his use of convincing detail, brief but apparently well-founded references, statements so matter-of-fact that they sounded authentic, logically related strands of narrative, and the eye-witness attitude to events. But he was a profound scholar, a highly intelligent man, a leading wit among polished conversationalists and writers, a deadly propagandist. Thus he was able to write a pleasantly clear, fluent, almost casual language, which expressed precisely the bitterness of his satire.

Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) An Anthology of the English Literature - 18th Century (none) An Anthology of the English Literature - 18th Century íà www.äîì9.cjb.net Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) Jonathan Swift wrote without regard for any man, in his works he represented the vision of life as he saw it. Swift has often been presented as a diseased misanthropist, who saw his fellow-men as the Yahoos of the fourth book of Gulliver. Little of this is true. Swift's works, his diaries show that his fellow-men liked him and that he, in return, could bring out a genuine affection. Many of Swift's pamphlets show his genuine understanding of people's needs, joys and sorrows. Proud he may have been, and even arrogant, but this arose from the indictment of the higher society for refusing reason and benevolence as the ways of life. Nothing could seem more heartless than his Modest Proposal (1729) —that the poverty-stricken children of Ireland should be sold to the landlords for butcher's meat. Yet in every line of it throbs an intense and passionate indignation at the social and economic evils of eighteenth-century Ireland — evils which were in large measure the result of the policy of England in treating Ireland as a land to be exploited in the interests of English trade. Swift's life was a mixture of galling disappointments and hollow triumphs. He was born in 1667 in Ireland, though of English ancestry, and was educated, with the financial help of a rich uncle, at Trinity College, Dublin. At the age of twenty-two he entered the household of Sir William Temple, statesman and author, at Moor Park near London, to whom he became private secretary, where with several interruptions he continued for ten years till Sir William's death.

RACCONTA.IT HOME RACCONTI SOMMARIO Jonathan Swift Una breve biografia Jonathan Swift was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1667. His parents were English. He studied briefly at Trinity College in Dublin, but he left his studies and moved to England where he became private secretary to Sir William Temple in 1689. Later he took Holy Orders (the process by which you become a minister of the church), and in 1713 he became Dean of St.Patrick's in Dublin. During his life he was politically active both in England, where he supported first the Whigs and then the Tories, and in Ireland, where he fought for the rights of the people. In later life especially, he suffered from illness. He died in Dublin on October 19th, 1745. On is gravestone he had these words written: "Ubi saeva indignatio ulterius cor lacerare nequit" Swift was angry about the society of his time and he was disgusted by the behaviour of human beings in general. His anger and disgust show in his savage satirical prose. He is considered a humorist, too, but his humour is usually bitter and grotesque. His political writing was very powerful and successful (The Conduct of the Allies 1711,The Drapier's Letters, 1724). In 1724 he published Gulliver's Travels, his most famous work. He wrote some of his famous essays and characteristic poems during his last years in Ireland: The Grand Question Debated (1738); Verses on the Death of Dr.Swift (1729, pub.1739); A Complete Collection of Polite and Ingenious Conversation (1738); and the ironical Directions to Servants.
