GULLIVER’S TRAVELS INTO SEVERAL REMOTE REGIONS OF THE WORLD
작품 정보
“Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World” by Jonathan Swift is a satirical novel written in the early 18th century. The narrative follows Lemuel Gulliver, an adventurous surgeon and sea captain, as he embarks on a series of fantastical voyages. The opening portions introduce Gulliver's background and his first voyage to Lilliput, a land of tiny inhabitants, where his size and strength create both wonder and concern among the Lilliputians. The beginning of "Gulliver's Travels" outlines Gulliver's prior experiences and motivations for travel, which culminate in a shipwreck that lands him in the strange land of Lilliput. Upon awakening, he finds himself bound by the tiny people who inhabit the island, and his interactions with them reveal a mix of curiosity, hostility, and admiration. Initially treated as a giant curiosity, Gulliver navigates the complexities of their society while struggling to communicate. The early chapters establish a whimsical yet critical lens through which Swift critiques the politics, culture, and human nature of his time, setting the stage for the deeper allegories and satirical commentary that characterize the rest of the novel.
작가 소개
Jonathan Swift (1667~1745) was an Anglo-Irish writer, essayist, satirist, and Anglican cleric. In 1713, he became the dean of St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, and was given the sobriquet "Dean Swift". His trademark deadpan and ironic style of writing, particularly in works such as A Modest Proposal (1729), has led to such satire being subsequently termed as "Swiftian". He wrote the satirical book Gulliver's Travels (1726), which became his best-known publication and popularised the fictional island of Lilliput. Following the remarkable success of his works, Swift came to be regarded by many as the greatest satirist of the Georgian era, and one of the foremost prose satirists in the history of English literature.
Swift also authored works such as A Tale of a Tub (1704), An Argument Against Abolishing Christianity (1712), and A Modest Proposal (1729). He originally published all of his works under pseudonyms—including Lemuel Gulliver, Isaac Bickerstaff, M. B. Drapier—or anonymously. He was a master of two styles of satire, the Horatian and Juvenalian styles.
