*A Raging Wit: The Life and Legacy of Jonathan Swift* is our new exhibition! In honor of the 350th anniversary of Jonathan Swift’s birth, this show, based on the collections of the Penn Libraries, explores the many facets of Swift’s life and legacy through an examination of his many voices; his complicated relationships with both men and women; his ever-evolving politics; his many travels, whether by foot, horse, or ship, or in solely his imagination; and his views on the role of religion in society. It will examine how these influences manifested themselves in his writings and in the world’s reaction to his words. This fabulous exhibition is on display in the Goldstein Family Gallery, on the sixth floor of the Van Pelt-Dietrich library.
