"The Battle of the Books, and other Short Pieces" is a collection of writings by the satirist Jonathan Swift, best known for "Gulliver's Travels." One of the central pieces, "The Battle of the Books, " is a satirical account of a debate in the King's Library, wherein books literally engage in warfare, representing the literary quarrel between the Ancients and the Moderns. Swift humorously portrays this intellectual debate, suggesting that the contemporary writers of his age are not necessarily superior to the classical writers of antiquity. The collection often delves into Swift's commentary on society, literature, and human nature, all rendered in his signature biting wit.
