کتاب Irony and Earnestness in Eighteenth-Century Literature: Dimensions of Satire and Solemnity
The conventional literary history of the eighteenth century holds that upstart novelists and other intensely serious writers worked against the conservative and ironic sensibility of an earlier generation of satirists. However, many of these ostensibly earnest writers were exceptional satirists in their own right, employing the same ruses, tricks, and deceptions throughout their work. The novels of such canonical figures as Behn and Defoe, for example, passed themselves off as real documents, just as an earlier generation of hack writers combined the serious and the absurd. Re-examining this nexus between the ludicrous and the solemn, Shane Herron argues that intense earnestness was itself a central component of the ironic sensibility of the great age of literary satire and of Swift's work in particular. The sensationalism and confessionalism of earnestness were frequently employed tendentiously, while ironic and satirical literature often incorporated genuine moments of earnestness to advance writerly aims.

تاریخ ادبی متعارف قرن هجدهم معتقد است که رمان نویسان تازه کار و دیگر نویسندگان به شدت جدی علیه حساسیت محافظه کارانه و کنایه آمیز نسل قبلی طنزپردازان کار کردند. با این حال، بسیاری از این نویسندگان ظاهراً جدی در نوع خود طنزپردازان استثنایی بودند و از همان حیله‌ها، ترفندها و فریب‌ها در سرتاسر کار خود استفاده می‌کردند. برای مثال، رمان های شخصیت های متعارفی مانند بهن و دفو، خود را به عنوان اسناد واقعی نشان دادند، درست همانطور که نسل قبلی نویسندگان هک، جدی و پوچ را با هم ترکیب کردند. شین هرون با بررسی مجدد این پیوند بین مضحک و جدی، استدلال می کند که جدیت شدید خود جزء اصلی حساسیت طعنه آمیز عصر بزرگ طنز ادبی و به ویژه آثار سوئیفت بوده است.
