A worthy concept. This book is genuinely impressive as an index of the speed and extent to which Swift's reputation spread throughout his career and especially after his death...a remarkably valuable book indeed. This is an important pioneering work... The extensive bibliography, which minutely documents the translations, adaptations and critical articles in the various countries, is as praiseworthy as the wide-ranging and helpful Timeline. The Reception of Jonathan Swift in Europe represents an important and competent reference work for all future research on Swift on the European continent. It is an indispensable reference text not only for reception study, but also for the many insights of European scholars who have discovered unexpected translations of Gulliver's Travels and who have mined early encyclopedias, correspondences, and journals for commentary on Swift as a man, author, Irish patriot, husband, lover... A concise overview by Mr. Real and an illuminating Timeline... it is a volume that one goes to with a specific interest. * The Scriblerian and the Kit-Cats * Reference & Research Book News, August 2006 Book review in - Etudes Irlandaises, Printemps 20065, No. 31.1 * Etudes Irlandaises *More details
