«Viajes de Gulliver» is Jonathan Swift's satirical novel, published by Sarpe in 1984 in paperback (249 pages, in Spanish).
The novel recounts the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon: to Lilliput, a land of tiny beings; to Brobdingnag, a land of giants; to the flying island of Laputa; and to the realm of the Houyhnhnms, rational horses opposed to the savage Yahoos. Between satire and adventure, Swift criticises politics, science and human nature.
It is number 17 in Sarpe's Novelas Inmortales collection, with a translation by Juan G. de Luaces. The work was originally published in 1726.
Recommended for readers seeking a classic of social satire and eighteenth-century travel literature.
Jonathan Swift was an Anglo-Irish writer, essayist, satirist, and Anglican cleric. He was the author of the satirical prose novel Gulliver's Travels (1726) and the creator of the fictional island of Lilliput. He is regarded by many as the greatest satirist of the Georgian era and one of the foremost prose authors in the history of English and world literature.
