Although Jonathan Swift is mostly remembered for his novel Gulliver’s Travels, the majority of his written work consists of various essays and pamphlets in which he mercilessly reveals the weakness, cruelty, and falsehood of human nature. Within them he also developed a number of fictional author names, such as Isaac Bickerstaff, who criticised the astrology of his time.
This is a selection of Jonathan Swift's Irish pamphlets in Finnish translation, illustrating the full range of his interests and convictions.
