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
Gulliver's Travels an Irish publisher printing an anti-British satire, or possibly because the text he worked from did not include the passage. In 1899 the passage was included in a new edition of the "Collected Works". Modern editions derive from the Faulkner edition with the inclusion of this 1899 addendum. Isaac Asimov notes in "The Annotated Gulliver" that Lindalino is generally taken to be Dublin, being composed of double lins; hence, Dublin. "Gulliver's Travels" has been the recipient of several designations: from Menippean satire to a children's story, from proto-science fiction to a forerunner of the modern novel.
