[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page research paper that examines how Jonathan Swift's classic Gulliver's Travels, which is a biting adult satire was transformed into a staple of children's literature. The writer summarizes Jackie Stallcup's insightful history and analysis of Gulliver's myriad children's adaptations. This review establishes the fact that adaptations of classics into children's books says a great deal about adult agendas, and provides backdrop for an investigation into current adaptations of Swift's work. In this regard, several reviews of contemporary adaptations of Gulliver, which are intended for children, are analyzed in order to determine the current editorial agenda for how this classic of English satire is perceived and presented to children.

Gulliver/His Cultural Tools
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that comments on the structure and purpose of Gulliver’s Travels (1726) by Jonathan Swift, which is one of the greatest societal and political satires of all time. Rather than presenting his castaway protagonist Gulliver as someone adrift within foreign cultures, the world of eighteenth century European society is meticulous interwoven into the fabric of Swift’s imaginative presentation. In short, the worlds that Gulliver encounters are all analogous to aspects of the society of Swift’s era. Therefore, the application of Gulliver’s own cultural experience to the act of description is not only appropriate, but the entire purpose of the work, as, through the narrative voice of Gulliver, Swift can making scathing comments about the political and social facts of his era. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

H.G. Wells’ “The Time Machine” -- A Discourse on Social Structure
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses “The Time Machine” and the ways in which the world of the future provided a commentary on Wells own time. When the story is viewed as a social construct of the world it takes on yet another tonal quality and presents a realm in which class consciousness exists as a fundamental cornerstone of social order. As a result, the book can serve as an allegory facilitating a discussion of socialism and its principles of equality. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

H.G. Wells/The Time Machine
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page critique and summary that discusses The Time Machine by H.G. Wells, first published in 1895, is a science fiction classic, the writer argues that this novel is also a remarkable work of social criticism, as it predicts the ultimate effects of the rigid Victorian social class system. A brilliant and multi-layered narrative, in this novel Wells exceeds the boundaries of the nascent genre of science fiction and proves himself to be, as Peter Firchow points out, a "radical innovator," as he is the "first writer of Utopian fiction to argue that the achievement of Utopia will inevitably lead to stagnation and degeneration" (Firchow 123). As this indicates, The Time Machine can be critiqued in regards to two principal viewpoints, as a work of science fiction and also in regards to being a profound social statement on Victorian society. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

H.G. Wells/Time Machine & Dr. Moreau
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page essay that addresses these works. Nineteenth century futuristic writer H.G. Wells was a man so preoccupied with the fate of humanity and so accurate in his predictions of that future that he has been called the "man who invented tomorrow" (MacKenzie 4). Wells accurately predicted aerial warfare, nuclear weapons, and space travel (MacKenzie 4). Nevertheless, Wells, as is true of anyone, was also a product of his time, late nineteenth century England. Examination of two of his works, The Time Machine and The Island of Dr. Moreau, demonstrates how Wells' writing not only reflects his vision of the future, but also the social, political and economic developments of his era. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
