Una auténtica profanación del poder eclesiástico de su tiempo por el maestro del género satírico. El presente volumen reúne tres de las obras más importantes del gran escritor irlandés, todas publicadas en 1704: "Cuento de un tonel", obra maestra de la primera etapa creativa del autor, sátira eufórica que, para muchos, es tan importante como la que le consagró de por vida, "Los Viajes de Gulliver";...

By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships is a prose satire of 1726 by the Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift, satirising both human nature and the "travellers' tales" literary subgenre. It is Swift's best known full-length work, and a classic of English literature. Swift claimed that he wrote Gulliver's Travels "to vex the world rather than divert it".

“A Voyage to Lilliput” is a novel by Jonathan Swift: The travel begins with a short preamble in which Lemuel Gulliver gives a brief outline of his life and history before his voyages. - During his first voyage, Gulliver is washed ashore after a shipwreck and finds himself a prisoner of a race of tiny people, less than 6 inches (15 cm) tall, who are inhabitants of the island country of Lilliput.

Ein englischer Geschäftsmann, Mr Wood, hat einen glorreichen Einfall, wie er den Iren ihr Geld auf ebenso geschickte wie schamlose Art und Weise legal aus deren Taschen ziehen kann. Jedoch hat er nicht damit gerechnet, dass Mr. Jonathan Swift seinen durch höchste britische Stellen abgesegneten Beutezug durchschauen würde. In der Analyse und Auseinandersetzung mit den Argumenten des "englischen Wirtschaftsgenies" wird die unglaubliche Heuchelei, Unverschämtheit und gewissenlose Gerissenheit ans Tageslicht gebracht, mit welcher skrupellose britische Turbo-Kapitalisten die irische Bevölkerung auszubeuten beabsichtigen.

Jonathan Swifts Werke werden mit Recht dem Kanon der Welt-Literatur zugerechnet, weil sie das widerspiegeln, was dem jeweiligen Zeitgeist entspricht und weil ihre Erzählungen von dem handeln, was von zeitloser Ästhetik und Würde ist.

Quando Lemuel Gulliver si sveglia su un'isola dopo un naufragio, con mani e piedi legati e tante frecce puntate su di lui, penseresti che ogni speranza è perduta. Ma i rapitori sono alti un dito, la corda è sottile come un filo e le piccole frecce sfiorano appena la superficie della pelle di Gulliver. Questa storia non è nemmeno tanto assurda rispetto a quanto capiterà a Gulliver in mare, ma, ironicamente, nessuna avventura susciterà una reazione emotiva.

"A Voyage to the Land of the Houyhnhnms" is a novel by Jonathan Swift: Despite his earlier intention of remaining at home, Gulliver returns to sea as the captain of a merchantman, as he is bored with his employment as a surgeon. On this voyage, he is forced to find new additions to his crew who, he believes, have turned against him. His crew then commits mutiny. After keeping him contained for some time, they resolve to leave him on the first piece of land they come across, and continue as pirates.

„Die Bücherschlacht“ ist eine Erzählung von Jonathan Swift: Wie die folgende Abhandlung unfraglich von demselben Verfasser ist, so scheint sie auch ungefähr um dieselbe Zeit geschrieben worden zu sein wie die vorhergehende; ich meine, im Jahre 1697, als der berühmte Streit über die alte und die moderne Gelehrsamkeit im Schwange war. Die Polemik entstand infolge einer Schrift Sir William Temples über jenes Thema, auf die W. Wotton antwortete, während Dr.

A Modest Proposal is a Juvenalian satirical essay written and published anonymously by Jonathan Swift. Swift suggests that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food for rich gentlemen and ladies. This satirical hyperbole mocked heartless attitudes towards the poor, as well as British policy toward the Irish in general. In English writing, the phrase "a modest proposal" is now conventionally an allusion to this style of straight-faced satire.

In 1729, Swift published A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People in Ireland Being a Burden on Their Parents or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial to the Publick known today as A Modest Proposal. In this satire, Swift grotesquely suggests how the poor could solve the problem of their numerous families which they are struggling to feed.

Written in 1729 as a satirical piece, selling the babies of the poor to the rich to be braised, baked, broiled, or boiled to rid Ireland of a perceived problem was probably less repulsive than it is today, but are the children of the poor still viewed as a throwaway segment of our population? Interestingly, the practice is also viewed as a solution to the "abortion" problem.
