SynopsisThis volume helps readers situate one of the most popular adventure novels ever written, Gulliver s Travels, within the 18th-century process of inventing and resisting Great Britain. Ideas of nationalism-both Irish and British-are questioned and explored. Gulliver s Travels is interpreted as a critique of British colonial aggression, and has special appeal for courses in British literature and Irish studies. Supplemental materials include additional writings by Swift, such as pamphlets (including the famous "A Modest Proposal"), sermons, poems, and letters. A wealth of critical essays adds further context.
