First published in 1983, Dean Swift is the concluding book in a
series of three volumes providing a detailed exploration of the
events of Swift's life. The third volume follows Swift's life and
career from 1714 to 1745 and sets it against the public events of
the age, paying close attention to political and economic change,
ecclesiastical problems, social issues, and literary history. It
traces Swift's rise to becoming first citizen of Ireland and looks
in detail at the composition, publication, and reception of
Gulliver's Travels, as well as many of Swift's other works, both
poetry and prose. It also explores Swift's later years, his love
affairs with Esther Johnson and Esther Vanhomrigh, his complicated
friendships with Pope, Lord Bolingbroke, and Archbishop King, and
his declining health. Dean Swift is a hugely detailed insight into
Swift's life from 1714 until his death and will be of interest to
anyone wanting to find out more about his life and works.
