      El capitán Gulliver viaja a fabulosos países, como Liliput, sin sospechar que le apresarán sus diminutos habitantes; y a Brobdingnag, poblado por gigantes que le exhiben como una rareza hasta que entra al servicio de la reina. Desembarca en la isla voladora Laputa, hábitat de sabios ridículos, y finaliza su aventura en el país de los houyhnhnms, donde el hombre -yahoo- vive sometido al poder del caballo.
