Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This prose parody critiques the morals and ethics of English society through a satirical lens, targeting the Roman Catholic and Anglican churches as well as English Dissenters. Composed between 1694 and 1697 and published in 1704, it showcases Jonathan Swift's masterful wit and complexity. The work faced significant backlash for its perceived irreverence, with early critics claiming it undermined Christianity and moral values. Its controversial nature has led to ongoing discussions about its religious implications well into the nineteenth century.
