Gulliver's Travels
De (autor): Jonathan Swift
Shipwrecked on an unknown island, Lemuel Gulliver wakes to find himself surrounded by its six-inch-tall natives, the Lilliputians. But this is only the first in a long line of wonderful discoveries, as his adventures take him to other far-off lands such as Brobdingnag, populated by a race of giants, Luggnagg, home to the eternally ageing Struldbrugs, and the country of the Houyhnhnms, a race of benevolent talking horses.Parodying the popular travel accounts of its time, Gulliver's Travels is not only a tour de force of imaginative and comic writing, which has thrilled readers of all ages for almost three centuries, but also a masterly, merciless satire on Western society and human nature.

"Gulliver's Travels" by Jonathan Swift is a timeless classic that transcends its 18th-century beginnings to become a captivating and pertinent work of satire. Swift's imaginative journeys of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's physician turned reluctant explorer, provide caustic commentary on human nature, society, politics, and the folly of the Enlightenment era.
The work is split into four sections, each of which describes Gulliver's meetings with several mythical civilizations: the small Lilliputians, the enormous Brobdingnagians, the scientifically oriented Laputans, and the logical but morally bankrupt Houyhnhnm. Swift's interactions provide a caustic assessment of modern British society and its institutions, highlighting the oddities and hypocrisies of human behaviour through metaphor and exaggeration.
