Excerpt from The Battle of the Books: With Selections From the Literature of the Phalaris Controversy; Edited by a Guthkelch The Battle of the Books is one of a large number of books and pamphlets written towards the end of the seventeenth century when both in England and in France men were eagerly debating whether the genius and achievements of their contemporaries or immediate predecessors were or were not greater than those of the ancients. It would be tedious and useless to tell again the history of the quarrel farther than is necessary to explain the circumstances under which Swift wrote his book. This account of the quarrel in France accordingly, begins at that point from which Sir William Temple appears to have known of it.
