Gulliver's Travels Gulliver's Travels Gulliver's Travels, or Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World. In Four Parts. By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships (which is the full title), is a prose satire by Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift, that is both a satire on human nature and the "travellers' tales" literary subgenre. It is Swift's best known full-length work, and a classic of English literature. He himself claimed that he wrote "Gulliver's Travels" "to vex the world rather than divert it". The book became popular as soon as it was published. Alexander Pope

Siegmund Lubin also advertised a "Gulliver's Travels" film in 1903; this may have been an attempt by Lubin to ride on the popularity of Méliès's version. In 1988, Jean-Pierre Mocky directed "Gulliver", a three-minute remake of Méliès's film, as part of the TF1 television program "Méliès 88". At the time, the film was one of 158 Méliès films presumed lost, but for which written scenarios survived; Mocky based his remake on Méliès's original scenario, but used a style and tone markedly different from Méliès's works. A stencil-colored print of the film is held at the Cineteca di Milano.
