Gullivers Rejser

Gullivers Rejser

by Jonathan Swift

Gullivers Rejser er en klassisk satire, der følger Lemuel Gulliver, en engelsk kirurg, på hans fantastiske rejser til forskellige fantastiske lande. Den første del af bogen, 'Rejse til Lilliput', skildrer Gullivers møde med en civilisation af små mennesker, Lilliputerne, der er meget mindre end ham. Gulliver finder sig i et forvirrende og ofte komisk land, hvor politiske intriger og smålighed præger tilværelsen. Den anden del, 'Rejse til Brobdingnag kæmpernes land', sender Gulliver til et land beboet af giganter, hvor han føler sig som en lille, hjælpeløs figur i en enorm verden. Swift bruger sine fantastiske fortællinger til at satirisere samfundsnormer, politiske magtspil og menneskelig dumhed. Bogen, der er skrevet i første person, blander satire med humor og eventyr, der både underholder og giver anledning til eftertanke.
