Gulliver's Travels
Jonathan Swift
The context In 1726, Swift began Gulliver's Travels which marks a peak of social and political satire through mixing elements on the pamphlet or the mode of the narrative, philosophy, logic, and fantasy science fiction. The novel was written by Swift after the crash of 1720. He had bought shares in the South Sea Company for 1000 pounds. Speculation had increased the value of a share of 128 pounds to 1050 pounds, before collapsing ruining many British traders. This increase and miniaturization of wealth in a very short time had to give Swift the idea of the relative size of changes in its main character would be a metaphor for this crash Swift giving the opportunity to make fun of through the society of his time. Jonathan Swift, born November 30, 1667 in Dublin, Ireland, and died October 19, 1745 in the same city is a writer, satirist, essayist, pamphleteer Anglo-Irish politics. [1] He is also a poet and scholar and, as he was Dean of St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin. He is famous for writing Gulliver's Travels. Swift is probably the greatest satirist in prose in the English language. He published his works by using pseudonyms as Lemuel Gulliver, Isaac Bickerstaff and M. B. Draper, or even anonymously. Finally, it is known to be a master of two styles of satire, the satire and horacienne juvénalienne satire. He is a member of Scriblerus Club. His first works He returned to Moor Park, where lives Temple. He wrote the Battle of the Books to defend Temple in the quarrel of the Ancients and the Moderns and in 1704, The Tale of the barrel, major work as a ruthless text regarding the stupidity of his contemporaries and who displease Queen Anne. In 1701, he anonymously published his first political pamphlet, A Discourse on the Contests and dissensions in Athens and Rome, where he sided with the Whigs. In 1702, three years after the death of the Temple, he returned to Ireland with Esther Johnson (now aged 20). He quickly gets the benefit of Laracor in County Mealth and a stipend to St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin. During the coming to power of the Tories in 1710, Swift supports through articles he wrote for the Examiner from 1711 to 1714, a newspaper of which he is the editor. In 1711, Swift published the political pamphlet "The Conduct of the Allies" attacking the Whig government for its failure to end the war with France. It is thus responsible for preparing public opinion for peace. It is at this time that the Tory government is conducting secret negotiations with France that will lead to the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, helping to end the war of Spanish Succession.
