About the book

Gulliver's Travels, published first in 1726 and again in 1735, is the most well-known work of Irish satirist Jonathan Swift. It is the story of Lemuel Gulliver, who captains a ship and sails the world, stopping in odd locations (such as Lilliput, Brobdingnag, and Glubbdubdrib) and getting into all sorts of trouble. During his adventures, he is held captive by a tiny race of people no taller than six inches, becomes an exhibition for giants, and meets a race of horses (Houyhnhnms) who rule humans (Yahoos). The entire work is a parody of the "travel" genre of literature (which was immensely popular at the time) and a satire on human nature in general. This classic, which includes all four of Gulliver's adventures, is a delight for readers young and old.JONATHAN SWIFT (1667-1745) was an Irish poet, essayist, satirist, political pamphleteer (for both Whigs and Tories), and cleric. Swift is the most well-known prose satirist in the English language, renowned for his works Gulliver's Travels, A Tale of a Tub, and An Argument Against Abolishing Christianity, among others. He was a master of two styles of satire: Horatian and Juvenalian, and originally published all his works under pseudonyms.

War mir zu absurd
So richtig einordnen kann ich diesen Klassiker nicht. Beworben als satirische Gesellschaftskritik habe ich mir irgendwie mehr erwartet. Gelesen hat sich alles, wie ein trockener Bericht einer lebenslangen Reise durch einen Fiebertraum. Ich musste Null schmunzeln und war kein einziges Mal emotional involviert. Zwei Sterne nur deshalb, weil der Schreibstil trotz 300 Jahre altem Werk angenehm und gut nachvollziehbar war.

Wieder mal einen Klassiker gegönnt. Ich zähle es jetzt nicht zu den Meisterwerken der Klassiker aber dennoch war es unterhaltsam.

Das ist eine Titel weirde Geschichte, und doch: Es regt zum Nachdenken an und gerade die letzte reißt zu den Pferden war irgendwie ein mega Denkanstoß. Und gleichzeitig alles so voller blühender Fantasie. Cool
