Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Battle of the Books and Other Short Pieces But Sir William Tem lo had missed Jonathan Swift from Moor Park. Di crenees were forgotten, and Swift, at his wish, went back. This was in 1696, when his little pu i1, Esther Johnson, was fifteen. Swift said of her, I knew her from six years old, and had some share in her education, by directing what books she should read, and perpetually instructing her in the principles of honour and virtue, from which she never swerved in any one action or moment of her life. She was sickly from her childhood until about the age of fifteen; but then grew into perfect health, and was then looked upon as one of the most beautiful, grace ful, and agreeable young women in London, only a little too fat. Her hair was blacker than a raven, and every feature of her face in perfection. Te was the Stella of Swift's after-life, the one woman to whom his whole love was given) But side by side with the slow owth of his knowledge of all she was for him, was t 6 slow growth of his conviction that attacks of giddiness and deafness, which first came when he was twenty, and recurred at times throughout his life, were signs to be associated with that which he regarded as the curse upon his life. His end would be like his uncle Godwin's. It was a curse transmis sible to children, but if he desired to keep the in uence his genius gave him, h could not tell the world why he refused to marry. Fonly to Stella, who remained unmarried fog his sake, and gave her life to him, could all be known.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

While things were in this ferment, discord grew extremely high; hot words passed on both sides, and ill blood was plentifully bred. Here a solitary Ancient, squeezed up among a whole shelf of Moderns, offered fairly to dispute the case, and to prove by manifest reason that the priority was due to them from long possession, and in regard of their prudence, antiquity, and, above all, their great merits toward the Moderns.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Battle Of The Books And Other Short Pieces This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!
