Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift view detail comment email this

"The central feature of this site is an edited, formatted version of the complete text of Gulliver's Travels, supported by accompanying materials for study and research. The overall plan is to produce a resource for the study of 'The Travels' in its many incarnations: the text itself, a political, social and religious satire, an 18th-century novel, a parody of travel literature, and an early science fiction novel." Nicely done site by UC Santa Cruz librarian, Lee Jaffe.
