Dive into Jonathan Swift’s sharp satire in A Modest Proposal, one of literature’s most famous works of dark humor and social criticism. Written in 1729, Swift offers a shocking "solution" to the poverty and famine affecting Ireland, proposing the unthinkable with a calm, calculated rationale that highlights the cruelty and indifference of the ruling classes. Through biting irony, Swift forces readers to confront the realities of exploitation and dehumanization in society.

Embark on an extraordinary adventure with "Gulliver's Travels," the timeless satire by Jonathan Swift, brought to life by the engaging narration of Ram Ranjini. This classic tale follows Lemuel Gulliver, a ship’s surgeon who finds himself cast away on strange and fantastical lands, each with its own unique culture and peculiarities. From the miniature people of Lilliput to the giant inhabitants of Brobdingnag, Gulliver's journeys offer a sharp and witty commentary on human nature, society, and the absurdities of the world.

Shipwrecked and cast adrift, Lemuel Gulliver wakes to find himself on Lilliput, an island in miniature where he towers above the inhabitants and surroundings. His subsequent encounters - with the brash giants of Brobdingnag, the philosophical brutish Yahoos, the flying creatures of Laputa - give Gulliver bitter insights into life, love, and humanity.

Lemuel Gulliver always dreamed of sailing across the seas, but he never imagined the places his travels would take him.

Gulliver landete nach einem Schiffsunglück auf einer einsamen Insel. Doch als er erwachte, merkte er, dass er nicht allein sein konnte: Über und über war er mit Fäden angebunden und festgespannt. Und noch während er darüber nachdachte, hörte er in einer seltsam kleinen Stimme die Sprache seiner Heimat.

Jonathon Swift changed the way that prose was written forever, now for the first time ever you can listen to three of his best works collected in one bundle! Writing both fiction and satire, Jonathon Swift was noted for his poignant and often times cutting views of the society he lived in.

Gulliver's Travels is an adventure story (in reality, a misadventure story) involving several voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon, who, because of a series of mishaps en route to recognized ports, ends up, instead, on several unknown islands living with people and animals of unusual sizes, behaviors, and philosophies, but who, after each adventure, is somehow able to return to his home in England where he recovers from these unusual experiences and then sets out again on a new voyage.

Lemuel Gulliver is a ship's surgeon. One day, he is the sole survivor when his ship sinks. Stranded on an island, he soon makes the acquaintance of the island's inhabitants. He has to look closely, though: The people of Lilliput are tiny! But not powerless, as he soon finds out.

Quando Lemuel Gulliver si sveglia su un'isola dopo un naufragio, con mani e piedi legati e tante frecce puntate su di lui, penseresti che ogni speranza è perduta. Ma i rapitori sono alti un dito, la corda è sottile come un filo e le piccole frecce sfiorano appena la superficie della pelle di Gulliver. Questa storia non è nemmeno tanto assurda rispetto a quanto capiterà a Gulliver in mare, ma, ironicamente, nessuna avventura susciterà una reazione emotiva.

Gulliver’s Travels takes listeners on an adventure to fictional and real places in the world, with fantastical elements such as a society of tiny people, flying cities, and the ghosts of ancient world leaders. Gulliver’s adventure takes him all over, and each location is uniquely themed and satirizes themes from our real world.

Una auténtica profanación del poder eclesiástico de su tiempo por el maestro del género satírico. El presente volumen reúne tres de las obras más importantes del gran escritor irlandés, todas publicadas en 1704: "Cuento de un tonel", obra maestra de la primera etapa creativa del autor, sátira eufórica que, para muchos, es tan importante como la que le consagró de por vida, "Los Viajes de Gulliver";...

Die Bücherschlacht ist eine unglaublich geistreiche, farbenfrohe, satirisch angehauchte poetische Parodie auf den Gebrauch und vor allem den Missbrauch von Wissen und Bildung, der seit dem überschaubaren Zeitfenster von etwa 6000 Jahren, auf welchen sich unser bescheidenes Kulturverständnis beschränkt, von allen Machthabern und Religionen angewendet wird, um auf rücksichtslose und unverschämte Weise neue Wahrheiten zu kreieren, obwohl diese ausnahmslos lediglich Variationen der immer gleichen Elemente abbilden.

Ein englischer Geschäftsmann, Mr Wood, hat einen glorreichen Einfall, wie er den Iren ihr Geld auf ebenso geschickte wie schamlose Art und Weise legal aus deren Taschen ziehen kann. Jedoch hat er nicht damit gerechnet, dass Mr. Jonathan Swift seinen durch höchste britische Stellen abgesegneten Beutezug durchschauen würde.

An amazing sight met my eyes. All around me were dozens of human creatures a little less than six inches high, chattering together in high-pitched voices in a strange language. When Lemuel Gulliver is shipwrecked in the Indian Ocean, it's the start of a series of adventures stranger than he could possibly have imagined. After the tiny inhabitants of Lilliput become suspicious of Gulliver, they plan to kill their huge visitor. What deadly scheme do they come up with?

Man würde es weder für möglich halten noch glauben, falls man es nicht - wie "LILYLA" versichert - wüsste, was sich hinter einem so unscheinbaren Titel für eine literarische Dimension verbirgt. Ein Text, der unterschiedliche Ebenen und gesellschaftliche Strukturen auf so atemraubend analytische, philosophische und humoristische Art und Weise reflektiert, dass der Intellekt Purzelbäume schlägt und es das Herz zum Erblühen bringt, falls sich an dessen Stelle nicht ein schwarzes Loch befindet.
