Gulliver's Travels

5W 1977 Jonathan Swift 

Notes

Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, published in 1726, is a satirical novel that follows the adventures of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon who encounters strange and fantastical lands. The book is divided into four parts, each chronicling a different voyage. Gulliver first finds himself among the tiny Lilliputians, then in the land of the giant Brobdingnagians, followed by a visit to the scientifically obsessed Laputans, and finally in the realm of the noble Houyhnhnms, where horses rule and humans are degraded. Through these fantastical tales, Swift offers a sharp critique of human nature, society, politics, and the folly of pride. The novel remains a classic of English literature, known for its wit, irony, and imaginative storytelling.
