Following ship surgeon, Lemuel Gulliver, Jonathan Swift's satire, Gulliver's Travels, is a humorous critique of the darker aspects of human nature.

Jonathan Swift(1667-1745) was an Anglo-Irish satirist, essayist, political pamphleteer (first for Whigs, then for Tories), and poet, famous for works likeGulliver's Travels,A Modest Proposal, TheJournal to Stella,The Drapier's Letters,The Battle of the Books, andA Tale of a Tub. Swift is probably the foremost prose satirist in the English language, and is less well known for his poetry. Swift originally published all of his works under pseudonyms such as Lemuel Gulliver, Isaac Bickerstaff, M. B. Drapier or anonymously. He is also known for being a master of two styles of satire: Horatian and Juvenalian.
