In A Tale of a Tub Swift begins a process of colonial reflection on the bodies of the colonized which will continue to haunt his work. Swift writes of 'That highly celebrated Talent among the Modern Wits, of deducing Similitudes, Allusions, and Applications very Surprizing, Agreeable, and Apposite, from the Genitals of either Sex, together with their proper Uses. And truly having observed how little Invention bears any Vogue, besides what is derived into these Channels, I have sometimes had a Thought, That the happy Genius of our Age and Country, was prophetically held forth by that antient typical Description of the Indian Pygmies; whose Stature did not exceedabove two Foot (but whose genitals were thick and reached all the way to their ankles.'
