Jonathan Swift and Philosophy is the first book to analyse and
interpret Swift's writing from a philosophical angle. By placing
key texts of Swift in their philosophical and cultural contexts and
providing background to their history of ideas, it demonstrates how
well informed Swift's criticism of the politics, philosophy, and
science of his age actually was. Moreover, it also sets straight
preconceptions about Swift as ignorant about the scientific
developments of his time. The authors offer insights into, and
interpretations of, Swift's political philosophy, ethics, and his
philosophy of science and demonstrate how versatile a writer and
thinker Swift actually was. This book will be of interest to
scholars of philosophy, history of ideas, and 18th century
literature and culture.
