Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of poems written by Jonathan Swift, an Irish writer known for his satirical wit and provocative views. Published in 1735 and referred to in academia as the Legion Club, it satirizes the political and social landscape of Ireland in the 18th century. It draws particular attention to the corruption and hypocrisy of the powerful elite in Ireland, with many of the poems taking aim at specific individuals and institutions. The book is a fascinating snapshot of Irish society during this period and is still relevant today as a cautionary tale about the dangers of corruption and the importance of holding those in power to account. It provides valuable insights into the development of satire as a literary genre and its enduring power to expose and challenge the excesses of those in authority. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259357841_0
