Lemuel Gulliver is a pseudonym, borrowed from the narrator of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels (1726), under which The Anatomist Dissected was published in 1727. The writer behind it has never been securely identified. The pamphlet — in full The Anatomist Dissected: or, The Man-Midwife Finely Brought to Bed — is a satirical examination of the conduct of the surgeon Nathanael St André in the notorious case of Mary Toft of Godalming, the "rabbit woman" who in 1726 convinced a number of eminent medical men that she had given birth to rabbits. The title page extends the joke by styling its author surgeon and anatomist to the kings of Lilliput and Blefuscu, and a fellow of the Academy of Sciences in Balnibarbi. Catalogues differ on the attribution, and the pamphlet has at various times been assigned to Swift himself and to others in his circle; none of these attributions is established.
