«Voyages de Gulliver» is Jonathan Swift's satirical novel, published by Folio in paperback (443 pages, in French).
Lemuel Gulliver, a surgeon passionate about navigation, recounts his expeditions to extraordinary territories. In Lilliput he discovers a kingdom of tiny beings and in Brobdingnag a land of giants. The work parodies the travel narratives of its time and uses the fantastic to satirize politics, society, and human nature.
Originally published in 1726, this French edition includes a translation by Jacques Pons, a preface by Maurice Pons, and is part of the Folio classique collection.
For a general audience interested in literary classics and eighteenth-century social satire.
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.
