Summary
| Description |
English: Map of Lilliput, for the 1726 edition of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels (or, Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World, 1726). Lilliput is situated south of Sumatra and north of "Dimen's Land" (Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania)?). Real islands in the far neigbourhood are nowadays the Cocos (Keeling) Islands (Australia) and Christmas Island (Great-Britain) and further south the pair Île Amsterdam (Amsterdam Island, Amsterdam or Nieuw-Amsterdam) and Île Saint-Paul at a distance of 85 km, which resemble the pair Blefuscu and Lilliput in the novel Gulliver's Travels. |
