"Gulliverin matkat kaukaisilla mailla" by Jonathan Swift is a classic satirical novel written in the early 18th century. The story follows Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon whose adventures take him to various fantastical lands, beginning with Lilliput, a miniature nation inhabited by tiny people. This journey serves as a vehicle for Swift to critique human nature and contemporary society. At the start of the narrative, the protagonist provides background on his life, detailing his education and early career, which leads him to travel extensively. After a shipwreck, Gulliver washes ashore in Lilliput, where he is captured by its inhabitants who are only six inches tall. Bound and unable to move, Gulliver experiences both fear and curiosity as he interacts with the tiny population, ultimately igniting a mix of admiration and fear among them. The opening sets the stage for a rich exploration of the absurdities of politics and society through Gulliver’s extraordinary experiences in Lilliput and beyond.
