Jonathan Swift 1667-1745 was an Irish cleric, political pamphleteer, satirist, and author of Gulliver's Travels(1726) as well as other stories. He was dean of St. Patrick's Cathedral Dublin from 1713.

Swift was considered a national hero for his writings that criticized or lampooned British policies. Although Swift became insane in his last years he was known until his death as Dublin's foremost citizen.
