About this title

Synopsis

Winner of the James Tait Black Memorial Prize 1985.

From Library Journal

This biography is a new scholarly ex amination of Swift and his perilous times. It cannot substitute for Irvin Eh renpreis's massive Swift, The Man, His Works and The Age (1962-83; see LJ 3/ 1/84), but it will be very useful to read ers seeking a more succinct look at a complex and often contradictory his torical figure. Nokes offers fresh in sights into the Dean's public and pri vate lives, maintaining a balanced view of even the most controversial ques tions, e.g., Swift's relationships with the women "Stella" and "Vanessa." The useful discussions of major works are smoothly integrated into the bio graphical sections, and overall Nokes succeeds admirably in his goal of giving "a portrait of the whole man in his mul tifarious roles." Recommended for all subject collections. Starr E. Smith, Georgetown Univ. Lib., Washington, D.C.
