Gulliver's Travels

This book belongs among the favorite books of reading mankind. The reason for its popularity is, first of all, the author's rich imagination and masterfully conceived plot. This, of course, explains its unprecedented success with young readers of all nations. But if the value of the book was reduced only to its "entertaining", it would not have found a place among the most profound and instructive creations of human genius. This tale of Lilliputians and giants, this external design as if created to accommodate the greatest content. Under the guise of fantastic adventures Swift showed readers a moral cross-section of the whole society of his era with all its vices and delusions. The meaning of the novel "Gulliver's Travels" is to show the absurdity of the ideas of the Age of Enlightenment, which unfairly exalted man and his meager knowledge of the universe. The story of the main character is a grim prediction of what, in the author's opinion, awaits mankind, if it does not turn from the ruinous path of ignorance, hypocrisy and pride. This is the main idea of "Gulliver's Travels". The book is printed from the Soviet edition "Academia" 1928 from the series "Treasures of World Literature".
