Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a product of years of scholarly research and thought, delves into the complex history of satire and libel. By examining written works like those of Swift, and broader cultural shifts and social issues, the author argues that this literary genre is deeply entwined with power structures and the ways in which those with authority have sought to both repress and exert control. Swift's works in particular demonstrate how satire and libel can be utilized as tools for critiquing those in positions of power, and how such critiques often intersected with religious and political concerns. Ultimately, this book serves as an in-depth exploration of the ways in which satire and libel can function as both weapons and shields in the ongoing struggle for free speech and the dissemination of ideas.
