In Book Four of Jonathan Swift s Gulliver s
Travels, the protagonist Gulliver goes to visit a
strange land in which the ruling class is composed
of a race of intelligent horse-like beings, known
as Houyhnhnms. The casual reader of Swift, who has
approached Gulliver s Travels under the assumption
that it is nothing more than a children s book,
will doubtless view this as an amusing episode of
fantasy, and read nothing more into it. However,
Gulliver s Travels was never intended as a

Jonathan Edwards God

Theology of Love or Hate? ? I make seeking my
salvation the main business of my life. ? (editor,
Perkins. 103). At the time of the preceding
statement, Jonathan Edwards neither had a full
understanding of God? s redeeming love or the
ability to convey the simplicity of salvation
through the love of Jesus Christ. It is improper
and un scriptural to imply that an individual must
make the quest for eternal life a prolonged and
protracted journey. This places the salvation

Modest Proposal Jonathan Swift

Have You Eaten Yet? : Swift s Final Solution As a
lately favored eighteenth century essay, Jonathan
Swift s Proposal has been canonized as a satirical
model of wit. As will be discussed shortly, Swift
s essay is often seen as an allegory for England s
oppression of Ireland. Swift, himself and Irishman
(Tucker 142), would seem to have pointed his razor
wit against the foreign nation responsible for his
city s ruin. Wearing the lens of a New
Historicist, however, requires that we reexamine

Gulliver Travels Six Inches High

Did Jonathan Swifts literary works reflect the
life and times in which he lived? While
researching for this paper I have read many
criticisms, biographies and articles. In reading
those I have come to the conclusion that his works
clearly represented his life and times. I hope
that by the end of this paper you agree. Swifts
literary career didnt begin until he published The
Tale of the Tub and The Battle of the Books. Both
of these were published anonymously. After his
initial plunge into the wo...

God In The Hands Of Angry Sinners Jonathan Edwards
delivered his sermon, Sinners in the Hands of an
Angry God, in Enfield Connecticut on July 8, 1741,
the year following George Whitefield's preaching
tour which helped inspire the Great Awakening.
Weeping and emotional conviction among Edwards
