The first section tells an allegorical story about three brothers, Peter, Martin, and Jack, symbolizing different branches of Christianity. Through their adventures, Swift satirizes religious extremism and doctrinal disputes. The second section includes a series of essays and satirical asides addressing various topics like literature, politics, science, and religion, satirizing the intellectual and moral climate of the era.
