Title: The Shifting Persona in Jonathan Swift's A Tale of a Tub
Authors: Wallace, Harriette
Advisor: Vichert, Gordon
Department: English
Keywords: English Language and Literature;English Language and Literature
Publication Date: May-1971
Abstract: <p>This thesis endeavors to investigate the shifting rhetoric of A Tale of a 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.</p>
