Description: This edition of Swift's classic novel presents the 1965 Herbert Davis Edition (based on the Faulkner Edition of 1735) along with five critical essays - newly commissioned or revised for a student audience - that read Gulliver's Travels from five contemporary critical perspectives. Each critical essay is accompanied by a succinct introduction to the history, principles, and practice of the critical perspective and by a bibliography that promotes further exploration of that approach. In addition, the text and essays are complemented by an introduction providing biographical and historical contexts to Swift and Gulliver's Travels, a survey of critical responses to the novel since its initial publication, and a glossary of critical and theoretical terms.
