By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships, better known simply as Gulliver's Travels (1726, amended 1735), is a novel by Anglo-Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift, that is both a satire on human nature and a parody of the "travellers' tales" literary subgenre.

Lemuel Gulliver, Schiffsarzt und später Kapitän, schildert die Erlebnisse seiner vier Reisen. Auf der Insel Liliput lernt er winzige Einwohner kennen. Auf der Insel Brobdingnag ist Gulliver Zwerg unter Riesen. Die Bewohner der schwebenden Insel Laputa terrorisieren die darunterliegende Insel Balnibarbi und widmen ihr Leben einer überflüssigen Bildung. Schließlich begegnet er den Hauyhnhnms, vernünftigen Pferden. In ihrem Land leben auch wilde Humanoide, die Yähu (die von den Pferden als Haus- und Lasttiere gehalten werden).

It might seem an enlightening idea to take stock of good manners from the perspective of centuries past. Classic author Jonathan Swift deftly takes a look at manners and, through satire, finds a way to add humor to the subject of manners during his era. You will need to remember that this in order to find the nuggets of humor that may be found from the author of Gulliver's Travels. Narrated by Glenn Hascall.

The full title of Swift's pamphlet is A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People from Being a Burtden to their Parents, or the Country, and for Making them Beneficial to the Publick."The tract is an ironically conceived attempt to "find out a fair, cheap, and easy Method" for converting the starving children of Ireland into "sound and useful members of the Commonwealth." Across the country poor children, predominantly Catholics, are living in squalor because their families are too poor to keep them fed and clothed.

Gulliver's Travels describes the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon. In Lilliput he discovers a world in miniature; towering over the people and their city, he is able to view their society from the viewpoint of a god. However, in Brobdingnag, a land of giants, tiny Gulliver himself comes under observation, exhibited as a curiosity at markets and fairs.

"Gulliver's Travels" by Jonathan Swift is a wild series of adventures widely acclaimed as "universally read" and highly influential. After a shipwreck, an Englishman discovers new, strange lands, and learns of the customs and governments of their inhabitants. This is an opportunity both for absurd humor and political satire, and the story of Lilliput may be the best example of Swift's imagination and wit. Gulliver finds himself a prisoner of a race of tiny people, the Lilliputians; they are no more than 6 inches tall, and he appears a giant to them. Soon afterwards, the spectacular giant becomes a favorite of the court, and is given a good view of the politics of the kingdom.
