Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) was an Irish satirist, essayist, prose writer and poet, who has found his calling as a cleric of St Patrick`s Cathedral in Dublin. "The Journal to Stella" is a collection of sixty-five letters from Jonathan Swift to his friend Esther Johnson, whom he called "Stella" and, according to some reports, was his secret wife, although there is no documentary evidence of it. Swift wrote the letters between 1710 and 1713 in England and many critics consider them as deeply personal.
