Journal Entry 1 by wingcluricaunewing from Armagh, Co. Armagh United Kingdom on Wednesday, February 27, 2013
Jonathan Swift, born in Dublin in 1667, was a satirist, essayist, poet and cleric. He is probably best known for remembered for works such as Gulliver's Travels.

Shipwrecked and cast adrift, Lemuel Gulliver wakes to find himself on Lilliput, an island inhabited by little people, whose height makes their quarrels over fashion and fame seem ridiculous. His subsequent encounters - with the crude giants of Brobdingnag, the philosophical Houyhnhnms and brutish Yahoos - give Gulliver new, bitter insights into human behaviour. Swift's savage satire views mankind in a distorted hall of mirrors as a diminished, magnified and finally bestial species, presenting us with an uncompromising reflection of ourselves.
