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. I can make available other portions of the printed OUP edition in machine-readable form. This disk is deposited with permission of the Oxford University Press.
