Aprašymas
A satirical narrative by Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels(1726) has retained its popularity with children and adults alike for two and a half centuries for its inventiveness, wit, narrative strength, and a certain kind of grim humor. The four parts of the narrative describe the adventures of Gulliver, the ship's surgeon, among the Lilliputians, six inches high; the Brobdingnagians, tall as church steeples; the Laputans, who are thoroughly unpractical philosophers, historians, scientists and projectors; and finally the houyhnhnms, noble horses endowed with a rationality far beyond the reach of human beings.
