- David Taylor's book examines how the works of Shakespeare, Milton, Swift, and others were taken up by caricaturists to help eighteenth-century British public make sense of political issues. It offers a exploration of the relationship between literature and visual satire in this period, and in so doing, offers a novel approach to literary history. It has been reviewed as "An innovative account of Romantic-period graphic satire that brilliantly demonstrates the openness of visual culture to literary analysis."
