Les voyages de Gulliver, également connus sous le nom de Voyages dans plusieurs nations lointaines du monde, en quatre sections. Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and Then a Captain of Several Ships est une satire prose de 1726 de l'écrivain anglo-irlandais Jonathan Swift qui satirise à la fois la nature humaine et le sous-genre littéraire des contes de voyageurs . Il s'agit de l'¿uvre la plus connue de Swift et d'un classique de la littérature anglaise. Swift a affirmé qu'il a écrit Gulliver's Travels "pour gêner plutôt que détourner le monde." Le livre fut un succès instantané. Il est lu universellement, du conseil du cabinet à la crèche , a déclaré le dramaturge anglais John Gay. En 2015, Robert McCrum a publié sa liste des 100 meilleurs romans de tous les temps, qualifiant Gulliver's Travels d'un chef-d'¿uvre satirique . Le voyage commence par un bref préambule dans lequel Lemuel Gulliver décrit sa vie et son histoire avant ses voyages. Gulliver est lavé à terre après un naufrage lors de son premier voyage et devient prisonnier d'une race de gens minuscules, de moins de 6 pouces (15 cm) de haut, qui vivent sur l'île de Lilliput.

In four sections, Gulliver's Travels, also known as Journeys into Several Remote Nations of the World, Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and Then a Captain of Several Ships is a 1726 prose satire by the Anglo-Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift that satirizes human nature and the "travelers' tales" literary subgenre. It is Swift's best-known full-length work and an English literature classic. Swift claimed that he wrote Gulliver's Travels "to vex rather than divert the world." The book was an instant success. "It is universally read, from the cabinet council to the nursery," English dramatist John Gay said. In 2015, Robert McCrum released his list of the 100 best novels of all time, calling Gulliver's Travels a "satirical masterpiece." The journey begins with a brief preamble in which Lemuel Gulliver describes his life and history before his voyages. Gulliver is washed ashore after a shipwreck on his first voyage and becomes a prisoner of a race of tiny people, less than 6 inches (15 cm) tall, who live on the island country of Lilliput. On October 28, 1726, the first edition was published in two volumes for 8s. 6d. Motte published Gulliver's Travels anonymously, and several sequels (Memoirs of the Court of Lilliput...), parodies (Two Lilliputian Odes, The First on the Famous Engine With Which Captain Gulliver Extinguished the Palace Fire...), and "keys" (Gulliver Decipher'd and Lemuel Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Regions of the World Compendiously Method) were mostly published anonymously (or pseudonymously) and quickly forgotten. Swift had nothing to do with them and renounced them in Faulkner's 1735 edition. Swift's friend Alexander Pope wrote five verses on Gulliver's Travels that Swift liked so much that he included them in the book's second edition, though they are rarely included. In 1735, an Irish publisher named George Faulkner published a collection of Swift's works, Volume III, including Gulliver's Travels.

I intend in a short time to publish a large and rational defence of this art, and therefore shall say no more in its justification at present, than that it hath been in all ages defended by many learned men, and among the rest by Socrates himself, whom I look upon as undoubtedly the wisest of uninspir'd mortals.

Gullivers Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World. In Four Parts. By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships, commonly known as Gulliver's Travels (1726, amended 1735), is a prose satire by Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift, that is both a satire on human nature and a parody of the "travellers' tales" literary subgenre.
