About the book

I hope you will be ready to own publicly, whenever you shall be called to it, that by your great and frequent urgency you prevailed on me to publish a very loose and uncorrect account of my travels, with directions to hire some young gentleman of either university to put them in order, and correct the style, as my cousin Dampier did, by my advice, in his book called "A Voyage round the world." But I do not remember I gave you power to consent that any thing should be omitted, and much less that any thing should be inserted; therefore, as to the latter, I do here renounce every thing of that kind; particularly a paragraph about her majesty Queen Anne, of most pious and glorious memory; although I did reverence and esteem her more than any of human species. But you, or your interpolator, ought to have considered, that it was not my inclination, so was it not decent to praise any animal of our composition before my master Houyhnhnm: And besides, the fact was altogether false; for to my knowledge, being in England during some part of her majesty's reign, she did govern by a chief minister; nay even by two successively, the first whereof was the lord of Godolphin, and the second the lord of Oxford; so that you have made me say the thing that was not. Likewise in the account of the academy of projectors, and several passages of my discourse to my master Houyhnhnm, you have either omitted some material circumstances, or minced or changed them in such a manner, that I do hardly know my own work.

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
