THE INTELLIGENCER
Jonathan Swift and Thomas Sheridan
This disk contains the text of THE INTELLIGENCER as established
by me for the Oxford University Press edition, forthcoming.
THE INTELLIGENCER is a series of twenty periodical essays
written by Jonathan Swift and Thomas Sheridan and published in
Dublin 1728-9. Swift was responsible for nos. 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9,
10, 15, 19, and 20. The authorship of no. 12 is unknown. Sheridan
wrote the others and, as editor of the periodical, also wrote
introductions to some of Swift's numbers.
The text is in 20 files, INT1 - INT20. The files are MS-DOS
ASCII files written in Nota Bene 3.0. The only codes
not standard to Nota Bene are these:
\}\ = begin 3-line right brace
\2}\ = begin 2-line right brace
\note begin\ = begin footnote
\note end\ = end footnote
= begin small caps (Nota Bene MD SD code)
= turn off italics or small caps
The word transliterated as `aischrokerdeis' in no. 4 appears
in Greek characters in the printed text.

IT may be said, without offence to other Cities, of much greater
consequence in the World, that our Town of Dublin doth not want it's
due proportion of Folly, and Vice, both Native and Imported; And as
to those Imported, we have the advantage to receive them last, and
consequently after our happy manner to improve, and refine upon
them.
But, because there are many Effects of Folly and Vice among us,
whereof some are general, others confined to smaller Numbers, and
others again, perhaps to a few individuals; There is a Society
lately established, who at great expence, have Erected an Office of
Intelligence, from which they are to receive Weekly Information of
all Important Events and Singularities, which this famous Metropolis
can furnish. Strict injunctions are given to have the truest
Information: In order to which, certain qualified Persons are
emp . . .
