A Manner of Correspondence examines one of the most interesting of literary clubs, the Scriblerus Club, made up of the talented satirists Jonathan Swift, Alexander Pope, John Gay, John Arbuthnot, Thomas Parnell, and Robert Harley, Earl of Oxford. Patricia Brückmann explores the Scriblerians as a group, whose members were bound by correspondent values, complementary talents, and a united satiric program.
