Editing Gulliver's Travels (section)

===Lindalino===
The five-paragraph episode in Part III, telling of the rebellion of the surface city of [[Lindalino]] against the flying island of Laputa, was an allegory of the affair of ''[[Drapier's Letters]]'' of which Swift was proud. Lindalino represented [[Dublin]]<ref>[[Isaac Asimov]] notes in ''The Annotated Gulliver'' that Lindalino is generally taken to be Dublin, being composed of double "L-I-N"s; hence, Dublin:  {{cite book|last=Swift|first=Jonathan|editor=Isaac Asimov|title=The Annotated Gulliver's Travels|date=1980|publisher=Clarkson N Potter Inc|location=New York|isbn=0-517-539497|page=[https://archive.org/details/annotatedgullive0000swif/page/160 160]|url=https://archive.org/details/annotatedgullive0000swif/page/160}}</ref> and the impositions of Laputa represented the British imposition of [[William Wood (ironmaster)|William Wood]]'s poor-quality copper currency. Faulkner had omitted this passage, either because of political sensitivities raised by an Irish publisher printing an anti-British satire, or possibly because the text he worked from did not include the passage. In 1899 the passage was included in a new edition of the ''Collected Works''. Modern editions derive from the Faulkner edition with the inclusion of this 1899 addendum.
