«I viaggi di Gulliver» is the adventure and satire novel by Jonathan Swift, published by Poligrafici Editoriale in hardcover (191 pages, in Italian).
The physician Lemuel Gulliver survives several shipwrecks and visits imaginary lands: Lilliput, populated by tiny beings; Brobdingnag, where giants dwell; and other territories with scientists, magicians and talking horses. Beneath the guise of a travel tale, the novel is a biting satire of the politics, religion and justice of its time.
The work was originally published in 1726 as «Gulliver’s Travels». This Italian edition, with a translation by Giuliana Berlinguer, belongs to the collection «Biblioteca dei ragazzi».
Edition intended for young readers, although Swift's satire can also be appreciated in adulthood.
Jonathan Swift was an Anglo-Irish writer, essayist, satirist, and Anglican cleric. He was the author of the satirical prose novel Gulliver's Travels (1726) and the creator of the fictional island of Lilliput. He is regarded by many as the greatest satirist of the Georgian era and one of the foremost prose authors in the history of English and world literature.
