«Viajes de Gulliver» is Jonathan Swift's satirical novel, published by Espasa-Calpe in paperback (238 pages, in Spanish).
Lemuel Gulliver narrates his four voyages to Lilliput, a land of tiny beings; Brobdingnag, a land of giants; Laputa, a flying island of thinkers detached from reality; and the land of the Houyhnhnms, rational horses confronted with the Yahoo. Swift's satire examines politics, science, and human nature in these fantastic worlds.
1998 edition in the Centenary Collection, with translation by Javier Bueno. The work was originally published in 1726.
Although often associated with young readers, it is a satire for adults; will appeal to those seeking eighteenth-century classics.
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.
