3. Jonathan Swift(30 November 1667-19 October
1745) was an Anglo-Irish satirist, essayist,
political pamphleteer, poet & cleric who
became Dean of St Patrick’s Cathedral, Dublin.
He is Remembered for works such as A Tale of
a Tub(1704), An Argument Against
Abolishing(1712), & A Modest Proposal(1729).
4. Swift's "Gulliver's Travels" is a
pure piece of satire where he
satirizes party politics,
religious differences, and
western Culture as a whole in
ways still relevant to today's
world.
In where Swift depicts the total
political corruption beginning
from 16th century and ending
with 18th century.
5. The giants here, gulliver is a lilliput. The king
think of the english according to gulliver’s
discussions as the most odious. Filled with all
the vices known to humanity greed, pride,
ambition, murder, etc.
Gulliver also tells of their custom of "their
dead with their heads directly
downwards...The learned among them confess
the absurdity of this doctrine, but the practice
still continues".
6. Having Gulliver stand with his legs apart so
that the Lilliputian armies can walk through is
also a ridiculous idea.
It is a comment on the pomp and circumstance
of English armies.
7. After got a freedom further highlights the
unequal relationship between Gulliver and the
Lilliputians, but it is a relationship where a
cordial contract trumps simple power. Gulliver
could easily take control and break the
contract, but he chooses to be peaceful.
8. At the end of the story, Gulliver has
not yet realized that by seeing the absurdity of
the Lilliputians' traditions, that he might see
the absurdity in European ones. With this Swift
satirizes the conditions of Europe. "The
capering on a tight rope symbolizes Walpole's
dexterity in parliamentary tactics and political
intrigues”.
