Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aqui, encontra-se o mundo. Gulliver, um inocente médico inglês, transforma-se num intrépido viajante. Naufragando em paragens desconhecidas, descobre civilizações fantásticas, excêntricas, mas também a cupidez, a inveja e a intriga. Os velhos vícios da humanidade, satirizados pelo olho cirúrgico de Swift, o grande ironista, numa prosa magnífica. Mas nem só de sátira vive a literatura. A literatura é também sonho e imaginação. E isso não falta. Venha conhecer seres minúsculos e gigantes amáveis, ilhas voadoras habitadas por intelectuais absortos, gente que nunca morre, cavalos faladores que cultivam a razão e humanos bestiais; há ainda marinheiros, piratas e até um capitão português.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obra mais famosa de Jonathan Swift, Viagens de Gulliver é um genial tratado de filosofia política. Em suas viagens, o personagem conhece diferentes regimes políticos e os analisa profundamente. Tudo isso é feito "com a pena da galhofa" e é exatamente essa capacidade que tornou Gulliver um personagem polêmico e um sucesso imediato. Em Viagens de Gulliver, Swift dispara sua fúria satírica contra a ciência, a sociedade, a economia, o comércio e a política de seu tempo. Até mesmo a decisão de escrever em formato de relato de viagem é uma resposta sarcástica ao sucesso que a obra Robinson Crusoé conquistava na época em que Swift começou a produzir o texto. Tudo em Gulliver é polêmico, inclusive o fato de um livro que foi descrito por Thackeray (1811-1863) como "imundo em palavras, imundo em pensamentos, furioso, violento e obsceno" ter se tornado ao longo do tempo uma história de caráter infantil. Swift influenciou autores como George Orwell (1903-1950) e os brasileiros Machado de Assis (1839-1908) e Monteiro Lobato (1882-1948). A visão de um estrangeiro em situações insólitas nos remete aos contrastes culturais enfrentados pelos fluxos migratórios que chegaram ao Brasil desde sua tomada pelos europeus e, depois, por outros povos imigrantes de toda sorte, como japoneses, italianos, alemães, africanos, judeus, sírios, armênios e árabes. Tornar Gulliver acessível gratuitamente é uma conquista para todos os leitores em língua portuguesa. Título original: Gulliver's Travels (1726)

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: Jonathan Swift has had a profound impact on almost all the national literatures of Continental Europe. The celebrated author of acknowledged masterpieces like A Tale of a Tub (1704), Gulliver's Travels (1726), and A Modest Proposal (1729), the Dean of St Patrick's, Dublin, was courted by innumerable translators, adaptors, and retellers, admired and challenged by shoals of critics, and creatively imitated by both novelists and playwrights, not only in Central Europe (Germany and Switzerland) but also in its northern (Denmark and Sweden) and southern (Italy, Spain, and Portugal) outposts, as well as its eastern (Poland and Russia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria) and Western parts - from the beginning of the eighteenth century to the present day.

Book excerpt: Set sail on an incredible journey with Jonathan Swift's satiric masterpiece. A fantastical tale, Gulliver's Travels tells the story of the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, an English ship's surgeon. First, he is shipwrecked in the land of Lilliput, where the alarmed residents are only six inches tall. His second voyage takes him to the land of Brobdingnag, where the people are sixty feet tall. Further adventures bring Gulliver to an island that floats in the sky, and to a land where horses are endowed with reason and beasts are shaped like men. Read by children as an adventure story and by adults as a devastating satire of society, Gulliver's Travels remains a fascinating blend of travelogue, realism, symbolism, and fantastic voyage—all with a serious philosophical intent. With an Introduction by Leo Damrosch and an Afterword by Nathanial Rich Includes thirty illustrations by Charles Brock and five maps of Gulliver's journeys.

Book excerpt: 'I felt something alive moving on my left leg ... when bending my Eyes downwards as much as I could. I perceived it to be a human Creature not six inches high' 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 the brutish Yahoos - give Gulliver new, bitter insights into human behaviour. Swift's savage satire view mankind in a distorted hall of mirrors as a diminished, magnified and finally bestial species, presenting us with an uncompromising reflection of ourselves.'I felt something alive moving on my left leg ... when bending my Eyes downwards as much as I could. I perceived it to be a human Creature not six inches high'

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.Gulliver's Travels is a wickedly clever satire that uses comic inversions to offer telling insights into the nature of man and society.
