The name in the direction of Swift does not belong to Vladimir Muravyov, it is proposed by the public. Although in fact, this volume, uniting two books under one cover, written at the turn of the 60-70s, could be called Dialogue with Swift. The dialogue that leads with the famous, equally glorified and damned Anglo-Irish philosopher writer Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) is a thirty-year-old Moscow philologist-intellectual. One starts - the other picks up. There is no difference in age, there is no distance in time and space. It is read - as if fascinating, today a written novel. Not because “relevant” - but because smart people who are so rare are relevant at all times.
The author quotes how he himself writes, “not particularly modest redness of Swift” regarding the future fate of “Gulliver’s travels”: “The book will live as much as our language, because its value does not depend on the transient customs of thinking and speech, but It consists in a number of observations of imperfection, recklessness and vices of the human race. ” These words are quite applied to the book of Vladimir Muravyov too. No wonder he could afford to conduct a dialogue with Swift - on an equal footing. Had the right
