By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships, est satura in sermone soluto composita,[1][2] anno 1726 ab Ionathana Swift scriptore et clerico Hibernico edita, quae ingenium humanum et litteras peregrinations, genus litterarum, irridet. Quae mythistoria est magnum opus Swiftianum notissmum et unum ex classicis litterarum Anglicarum. Swift affirmabat se Gulliver's Travels scripsisse "ad mundum vexandum, potius quam eum delectandum."[3]
