Gulliver's Travels

Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of fantastical voyages, this prose satire explores human nature and the absurdities of society through the eyes of Lemuel Gulliver, a surgeon turned ship captain. Jonathan Swift critiques the "travellers' tales" genre while presenting a sharp commentary on morality and politics. Written in 1726, it stands as Swift's most renowned work, aiming to provoke thought rather than simply entertain, making it a significant classic in English literature.
