Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publicado em 1726, Viagens de Gulliver é uma crítica contundente ao homem, suas instituições e seu amor exacerbado pelo poder e pelo dinheiro. Clássico da literatura de língua inglesa, o livro tem o título original de As viagens através de várias e remotas nações do mundo, por Lemuel Gulliver, primeiramente cirurgião e depois capitão de vários navios. São quatro viagens, e em cada uma delas há críticas à Inglaterra do século XVIII e à humanidade em geral. Nesta edição, apresentamos as duas viagens mais conhecidas, a Lilliput e a Brobdingnag. Em Lilliput, Gulliver encontra homenzinhos minúsculos, diante dos quais ele é um verdadeiro gigante. Os liliputianos estavam em guerra constante com os também minúsculos habitantes de Blefuscu, a ilha vizinha. Brigavam para defender seu ponto de vista sobre o lado certo de quebrar o ovo, o mais fino ou o mais largo – e Gulliver, naturalmente, acaba se envolvendo na guerra, pelo lado de Lilliput. Em Brobdingnag, inverte-se a situação: os habitantes do reino são gigantes, e Gulliver, agora muito menor que um anão, torna-se um brinquedo e uma atração para o povo, embora fosse bem-tratado e bem-cuidado por todos e tivesse longas e produtivas conversas com o rei. Num texto cheio de ironia, de sátiras à sociedade da época e à própria vida do autor, o livro questiona e critica os motivos fúteis pelos quais a Inglaterra e a Europa entravam em guerras, a facilidade em dominar os outros quando se é “superior”, física ou economicamente, a utilidade dos exércitos, as guerras, as traições e intrigas palacianas, o governo inglês e seus governantes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gulliver's Travels describes the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon. In Lilliput he discovers a world in miniature; towering over the people and their city, he is able to view their society from the viewpoint of a god. However, in Brobdingnag, a land of giants, tiny Gulliver himself comes under observation, exhibited as a curiosity at markets and fairs. In Laputa, a flying island, he encounters a society of speculators and projectors who have lost all grip on everyday reality; while they plan and calculate, their country lies in ruins. Gulliver's final voyage takes him to the land of the Houyhnhnms, gentle horses whom he quickly comes to admire - in contrast to the Yahoos, filthy bestial creatures who bear a disturbing resemblance to humans. This text, based on the first edition of 1726, reproduces all the original illustrations and includes an introduction by Robert Demaria, Jr, which discusses the ways Gulliver's Travels has been interpreted since its first publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shipwrecked and cast adrift, Lemuel Gulliver wakes to find himself on Lilliput, an island inhabited by little people, whose height makes their quarrels over fashion and fame seem ridiculous. His subsequent encounters - with the crude giants of Brobdingnag, the philosophical Houyhnhnms and brutish Yahoos - give Gulliver new, bitter insights into human behaviour.
