Gulliver's Travels
Энэ электрон номын тухай
A parody of the travel literature genre, Gulliver’s Travels follows the voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a well-educated modern traveler who finds himself shipwrecked on the island country of Lilliput, inhabited entirely by a race of tiny people constantly engaged in strange, petty disputes. He finds himself entangled in and fascinated by their way of life, but eventually manages to escape the island.
Gulliver later visits the strange land of Brobdingnag, populated by a race of giants, the floating island of Laputa, and eventually meets with a civilization of deeply philosophical talking horses. Over the course of the novel, Swift humorously satirizes politics, government, and philosophy through Gulliver’s eyes.
Gulliver’s Travels is undoubtedly Jonathan Swift’s most popular novel and a classic of English literature.

Jonathan Swift was an Irish clergyman, author, and satirist. He is best remembered for his deadpan, ironic style of prose writing as demonstrated in A Modest Proposal, A Tale of a Tub, and of course Gulliver’s Travels.
