Rabb, Melinda Alliker.

Satire and secrecy in English literature from 1650 to 1750[electronic resource] /Melinda Alliker Rabb. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2007. - 235 p. :ill.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [207]-224) and index.

Secrecy and Satire * A History of Secrecy * Towards a Theory of Satire I: Gossip and Slander * Towards a Theory of Satire II: Secret History * The Gender of Satire: Contracts, Promises, and DonJuan-figure fromBehn to Byron * Satire: Re-reading The New Atalantis, Gulliver?s Travels, The Rape of the Lock, The Dunciad * ?A Life by Stealth?: Autobiographical Satire in Manley, Swift, and Pope *Postmodernizing Satire: Secrecy, Conspiracy, and Paranoia.

This book revises assumptions about satire as a public, masculine discourse derived from classical precedents, in order to develop theoretical and critical paradigms that accommodate women, popular culture, andpostmodern theories of language as a potentially aggressive, injuriousact. AlthoughHabermas places satirists like Swift and Pope in the public sphere, this book investigates their participation in clandestine strategies of attack in a world understood to be harboring dangerous secrets. Authors of anonymous pamphlets as well as major figures includingBehn, Dryden, Manley, Swift, and Pope, share at times what Swift called the writer's "life by stealth".
