About this ebook

Publicado por Jonathan Swift em 1726, Viagens de Gulliver logo passou a fazer parte do cânone
literário mundial, tornando-se ao mesmo tempo um marco da literatura satírica e uma referência
entre os livros de viagens. Esta obra narra as aventuras do cirurgião Lemuel Gulliver, que encontra
terras fantásticas de nomes exóticos — como Lilipute e Brobdingnag —, onde conhece homens
pequeninos e gigantes, cavalos inteligentes, humanos bárbaros e mais uma variedade de personagens curiosos. Mas o que paira por trás da prosa envolvente de Swift é uma crítica mordaz ao
homem, às instituições de poder, à ganância desmedida e até aos próprios livros de viagem.

Author

Jonathan Swift

Jonathan Swift was born in Dublin in 1667. Although he spent most of his childhood in Ireland, he considered himself English, and, aged twenty-one, moved to England, where he found employment as secretary to the diplomat Sir William Temple. On Temple's death in 1699, Swift returned to Dublin to pursue a career in the Church. By this time he was also publishing in a variety of genres, and between 1704 and 1729 he produced a string of brilliant satires, of which Gulliver's Travels is the best known. Between 1713 and 1742 he was Dean of St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin; he was buried there when he died in 1745.
