Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World update

The four-volume satirical book Gulliver s Travels was originally titled Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World and was published anonymously in 1726 by the Anglo-Irish poet Jonathan Swift under the pen name Lemuel Gulliver. As a cornerstone of English literature, it is one of the novels responsible for the development of the novel in the English language. Gulliver s Travels is a spoof on the genre of travel writing that was fashionable at the time; it combines adventure with scathing satire, making fun of contemporary English culture and politics.
