Gulliver's Travels

a play by Farhana Sheikh after Jonathan Swift

By: Farhana Sheikh

Squire: What’s this? ‘Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World by Lemuel Gulliver’? Francis: Gulliver’s Travels, my lord. Squire: Ah, the Reverend Swift! Splendid story. Big people and little people. Steward: Very well-known, sir. Francis: My lord, to be frank, it’s not only a matter of big and little. There are things about it, sir, words are spoken, certain actions performed that... Squire: Perform it now. For our pleasure. Or Henry here will – how would you put it, Steward? Steward: Dance from the end of a rope, sir. England 1727. Landed power and summary justice. A troupe of travelling players is commanded to put on a show. If they fail to please, one of their number will die. In the shadow of the gallows, they perform Swift’s masterpiece. But how can the reckless and uproarious satire of Gulliver ever satisfy the powerful and move them to mercy? ‘This play, the latest adaptation of the book, is also the most successful.’ Heinz Kosok: The Captain’s Ultimate Island: Gulliver’s Travels on the Stage.

Settlers, Saints and Sovereigns

An Ethnography of State Formation in Western India

By: Farhana Ibrahim

This book is an anthropological study located along India’s western border with Pakistan. The core arguments are situated within the context of contemporary religious nationalism, communal strife, and border politics in the Indian state of Gujarat. It seeks to understand how, within these contexts, a region becomes a meaningful place for its inhabitants and how different peoples relate to locality through time. Theoretically, the book builds on available anthropological literatures on state formation and border politics to interrogate the presumed impermeability of nationalist discourse and territorial boundaries.
