Lemuel Gulliver

This satirical science-fiction story is a sequel to S ndor Szathm ri's novel, Voyage to Kazohinia, which is itself a follow-on from Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels. After returning to Great Britain following his visit to Kazohinia in 1935, Lemuel Gulliver returns in 1940 on a secret military mission to get help in winning the war against the Huns from the scientifically and technologically advanced Hins. However, unknown to him at the time, Gulliver has also travelled 70-odd years into the future and arrived in Grand Boetonia (GB): what readers will recognize as a satirized depiction of modern Britain where a new language, purged of everything objectionable to anyone is enforced. Falling foul of this, Gulliver is compulsorily hospitalized, but finds that being psychotic oneself is the key qualification to becoming a successful psychiatrist in GB where things happen which could never happen anywhere else and seem to be the exact opposite of everything he knew at home...

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Western literary study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope, Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others.
