Synopsis
In this complete edition of Swift's poems, Professor Pat Rogers has re-established the texts by reference to the manuscripts and early editions. He has modernized the spelling and included several poems collected for the first time. The notes, which take account of recent scholarship, explicate Swift's meaning more comprehensively. This volume also contains a Biographical Dictionary of Swift's comtemporaries.
