Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) was an Irish satirist, essayist, prose writer and poet, who has found his calling as a cleric of St Patrick`s Cathedral in Dublin. "A Tale of a Tub" is one the most famous and masterful of Swift`s satire works. It is a prose parody consisting of several sections about the morals and ethics of England, a satire of religious overflow, tendencies in literature, politics, theology, and even medicine. Nothing went unnoticed!

`A Tale of Two Cities` (1859), Dickens` greatest historical novel, traces the private lives of a group of people caught up in the cataclysm of the French Revolution and the Terror. Dickens based his historical detail on Carlyle`s great work - `The FrenchRevolution` - and also on his own observations and investigations during numerous visits to Paris. `The best story I have written` was Dickens` own verdict on `A Tale of Two Cities`, and the reader is unlikely to disagree with this judgement of a story which combines historical fact with the author`s unsurpassed genius for poignant tales of human suffering, self-sacrifice, and redemption.
