About this title

Synopsis

This is a detailed examination of one of Swift's most central concerns, man's capacity for misunderstanding. After reviewing the pertinent Swift scholarship, Frances Louis relates some of the older views of the satires to the one she proposes, namely that judgment�or lack of it�is the crux of Swift's satiric fiction.
