  • "A Battle of Wits": Tubbian Entrapment in Swift
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2006 ”A battle of wits”: Tubbian entrapment in Swift Frischknecht, Andreas Abstract: Mein auf Leserreaktion basierender Zugang zu Swift beabsichtigt zu zeigen, dass Swifts satirische Schriften vor allem die Gefangennahme ihrer Leser zum Ziel haben. Satire wird somit als aktiver, den Leser miteinbeziehender Prozess betrachtet und ihre Eigenschaften und Strategien als ”Tön- nern” bezeichnet. Dies geschieht im Bezug auf das Bild der Tonne, welches gleichsam für Satire und daraus resultierende Lesergefangennahme in Swift steht und von Swift in seiner ersten grossen Satire, A Tale of a Tub, entwickelt wurde. Es gibt verschiedene ”Tönnerne” Eigenschaften in Swift. Swifts Satire ”neigt zur Drehung”; sie ist ”hohl” und ”leer”; sie ist ”lärmig, und hölzern”; und sie ist schliesslich besonders geeignet, ihre Leser, Walen gleich, ”durch Vergnügen” abzulenken (Tale 40). Folglich sind die markan- testen Merkmale ein Gefühl der Instabilität aufgrund konstanter perspektivischer Wechsel (”Drehen”); extremistische Natur und gleichzeitige Kritik an Extremismus, also Paradox, von einer grundsätzlichen Zirkularität der Methode stammend (die Form der Tonne); Leere, Abwesenheit des Autors durch Zuhil- fenahme satirischer personae und ein daraus folgendes Wertevakuum, in das der Leser gefangen wird und gezwungen, seine eigenen Entscheidungen zu treffen; Materialismus und Körperlichkeit, die satirische Methode der Demütigung durch körperliche Entfremdung; und schliesslich die Absicht des Erweckens von Interesse und Verwirrung durch eine Ansammlung verschiedenster Sichtweisen. My reader-response approach to Swift tries to show that Swift’s satiric writings are primarily designed to entrap their read- ers. Satire is perceived as process in action.

    THE SHIFTING PERSONA IN JONATHAN SWIFT'S A TALE OF A TUB THE SHIFI'ING PERSONA IN JONATHAN SWIFT'S A TALE OF A TUB By HARRIETTE WALLACE, B.A. I • A Tqesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University . May 1971 MASTER OF ARTS (1971) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Shifting Persona in Jonathan Swift's A Tale of ~ Tub AUTHOR: Harriette Wallace, B.A. (The College of St. Catherine) SUPERVISOR: Professor Gordon Vichert NUMBER OF PAGES: 160 SCOPE AND CONTENTS: This thesis endeavors to investigate the shifting rhetoric of A Tale of ~ Tub with the object of determining the nature of the speaker in both allegory and digressions. It concludes that a single voice, Modern by Swift's standards, speaks throughout. This voice adopts various Modern positions yet is not consistent in being Modern, for it does·, on occasion, let through Swift's own point of view. ii I wish to thank Dr. Gordon Vichert for his helpful suggestions during the preparation of this thesis. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page I.

BIBLIOGRAPHY 155 iv I INTRODUCTION This study began as a close reading of A Tale £!~~ with particular focus on its rhetoric. The Tale contains peculiar and confusing shifts in style and point of view, and by examining these shifts I have hoped to make my own judgment concerning the voice or voices responsible for them.

  • Introduction
    Cambridge University Press 0521802474 - The Cambridge Companion to Jonathan Swift Edited by Christopher Fox Excerpt More information CHRISTOPHER FOX Introduction “When a true Genius appears in the World,” Swift wrote, “you may know him by this infallible Sign; that the Dunces are all in Confederacy against him”(PW i: 242). He may well have been speaking about himself. After his death, his ghost was said to haunt the aisles of St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Dublin, complaining that “The Pamphlets wrote against me, would have form’d a Library.”1 Jonathan Swift (1667–1745) lived a contentious life in a contentious age. The day Swift, an ordained Anglican priest, became Dean of St. Patrick’s in 1713, these lines of welcome were said to be posted on the Cathedral gate: Look down St. Patrick, look we pray, On thine own Church and Steeple, Convert thy Dean, on this great Day, Or else God help the People.2 Swift of course invited and sometimes even welcomed this response. He did so because he was first and foremost a political writer, and one who was not afraid to speak truth to power. As a political writer, Swift was a brilliant controversialist with an uncanny ability to become what he attacked and then burrow from within. During his lifetime, political writers were at a premium. Swift lived to see the emergence of the new two-party system in the wake of the so-called Glorious Revolution of 1688 and the explosion of print media after the lapse of the Licensing Act in 1695.
