The Works of Jonathan Swift, D.D, Vol. 7: Dean of St (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book consists of a collection of satirical letters and addresses concerning Irish affairs, most especially the attempt by William Wood to introduce a copper coinage into Ireland. The author, who remains anonymous throughout, provides numerous arguments against Wood's coinage, and in so doing skewers the British government's economic policies toward Ireland, as well as the corruption and mismanagement rampant within the Irish government itself. The letters are not merely a response to a specific political and economic issue of the day, however, but articulate a broader, more philosophical critique of power and the relationship between the governors and governed. More broadly, the book continues the long tradition of Anglo-Irish literature critiquing the economic and political relationship between Britain and Ireland. The author's ideas and insights on these subjects still resonate in the present day, and his arguments remain relevant to discussions of national sovereignty, economic justice, and the rights of the governed. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330887967_0
