Textul de pe ultima copertă

In this narrative of the gullible ship's doctor Lemuel Gulliver and his extraordinary travels, Jonathan Swift takes readers through a series of apparently child-like fantasy worlds of tiny people and giants, floating islands and talking horses. But through this fantastic journey, he also gave to literature an enduring model of mankind's follies, vulnerabilities, vanities, and self-destructiveness. Dangerously topical in its own time and much debated ever since, Gulliver's Travels is among those works of English literature that entrap and challenge readers in every period. This edition uses the 1735 edition as the copy text, retaining the original, unmodernized text. Historical appendices provide a context for the novel's literary models, scientific influences, and complex political and religious allusions.

Notă biografică

Jonathan Swift wurde am 30. November 1667 in Dublin in Irland geboren und starb dort am 19. Oktober 1745. Er war ein anglo-irischer Schriftsteller und Satiriker.

Als Swift zur Welt kam, war sein Vater bereits verstorben und die Mutter schickte ihn bis zum fünften Lebensjahr mit einem Kindermädchen nach England. Zurück in Dublin wurde er von Verwandten aufgezogen. Mehr schlecht als recht absolvierte er dort ein Theologiestudium und machte danach in Oxford einen Abschluss als "Master of Arts" - beides finanziert durch einen Verwandten der Mutter.

Swift verfasste seine beiden ersten Bücher und begann eine Beziehung mit der unehelichen Tochter seines Gönners. Nach dessen Tod zog Swift für eine Anstellung bei der Kirche zurück nach Irland. Seine Werke wurden 1704 veröffentlicht und er gab auch politisch engagiert die Wochenzeitung der konservativen Tories heraus. Seine anonym verfassten politischen Satiren waren sogar Anlass, eine Belohnung für die Auffindung des Verfassers auszuschreiben.

Swift hatte eine mehrjährige Beziehung zu einer weiteren Frau, die nach der Beichte der "Dreiecksbeziehung" 1723 starb. Seine erste Freundin starb 1728. Sein heute bekanntester Roman "Gulliver's Travels" erschien 1726. Das eigentlich satirische Werk wurde aufgrund zu "kritischer" Passagen auch zu einer harmlosen Kinderbuchfassung gekürzt.

Neben einer schlimmer werdenden Innenohrerkrankung setzte Swift 1742 ein Schlaganfall zu, der ihn zum Invaliden machte, bis er 1745 schließlich starb.
