Hi
I myself am reading Gulliver's Travels, and eventhough I don't feel that it is as interesting as you make it sound like, the version of Gulliver's Travels which I have ( the Oxford World's Clics version) has a "Explanatory Notes" section at the back, which explains most of the historical stuff. Most of it is about opposing political parties, the Tories and the Whigs. The part about the "big-endians" and the "small endians" was suggested as to represent when Henry VIII started the Church of England to marry Anne Boleyn. The big endians were the Catholic Church and the small endians, the Church of England.
