Although Swift's work (especially the first two chapters) ended up becoming a classic of youth literature

It is the height of absurdity for the literature of the time

Behind the facade of strange adventures, we find a general criticism not only of English society in Swift's time, but of humanity and its dubious evolution.

Anglo-Irish writer Jonathan Swift published the novel anonymously in 1726.

The book was a formidable success, despite the fact that some partly explicit descriptions were removed and even banned.

The work is a clever mix of a travel story, an intimate diary, and utopia.

Gulliver's Travels is one of the classics of English literature.

His father passed away before he was born

His masterpiece, the novel that we already mentioned at the beginning of the article, was originally titled Travels to various remote nations.

You may not know it, but he is considered to be the creator of the feminine name Vanessa, which he devised to name a young woman with whom he shared part of his life and who, in reality, responded to the identity of Esther Vanhomrigh.

He actively participated in politics, even writing pamphlets against the Whigs, who were the rivals of the Tories, whom he supported.
