Podrobné informácie

This vintage book contains Jonathan Swift's 1704 satire, &quote;A Tale of a Tub&quote;. The first major work that he wrote, it is a prose parody about two brothers who are each representative of the chief aspects of western Christianity. It mainly deals with the ideas of religious enthusiasm, pride, and credulity. Published at a time when religion was an intrinsic aspect of politics, the work was widely condemned, with Queen Anne going as far as to call it &quote;profane&quote;. Contents include: &quote;The Introduction&quote;, &quote;A Digression Concerning Critics&quote;, &quote;A Tale of a Tub&quote;, &quote;A Digression in the Modern Kind&quote;, &quote;A Tale of a Tub&quote;, &quote;A Digression in Praise of Digressions&quote;, &quote;A Tale of a Tub&quote;, &quote;A Digression Concerning the Original&quote;, &quote;A Farther Digression&quote;, &quote;A Tale of a Tub&quote;, et cetera. Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) was an Anglo-Irish essayist, satirist, poet, and cleric. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction.
