Gulliver's Reizen naar Lilliput en Brobdingnag
Translated by Albert Verwey
"Gulliver's Reizen naar Lilliput en Brobdingnag" by Jonathan Swift is a satirical prose novel published in 1726. The story follows Lemuel Gulliver, an English surgeon and ship captain, who voyages to extraordinary lands inhabited by unusual beings. In Lilliput, he encounters tiny people obsessed with trivial political disputes. In Brobdingnag, he becomes a miniature curiosity among towering giants who scrutinize European customs. Through these fantastical journeys, Swift crafts a sharp satire of human nature and society that continues to resonate centuries later.
