Political satire from Lilliput to the country of the Houyhnhnms
Gulliver's Travels is a work that touches on eternal themes and ridicules human and social vices. This is not just a fairy tale, it is an allegory and a parable written by Jonathan Swift, an Anglo-Irish satirical writer, publicist, poet and public figure.
Swift wrote Gulliver's Travels as a political pamphlet and social satire on the mores of his time. He created a full-fledged fantasy world on paper, which fascinates with its completeness and detail of description. Swift's style is simple and straightforward, he wrote for the common people, but simplicity was not easy for him, he polished every phrase of his work.
The main component of the success of Gulliver's Travels is that Swift, with his skeptical view of humanity as a whole, was able to touch on eternal topics such as military conflicts, political fuss, corrupt judges, the dictates of those in power and subservience to them.
