1 minute to finish reading the British ** "Gulliver's Travels".
-
Theme of the work: "Gulliver's Travels" has a clear political leaning. Its critical edge focused on attacking parliamentary politics and reactionary religious forces in Britain at the time.
**Through Gulliver's adventures in Lilliput, Brobdingnag (Lord), Lepita (Flying Island) and Wisdom Horse, it reflects some contradictions in British society in the first half of the 18th century, exposing and criticizing the corruption and crime of the British ruling class and the frenzied plundering and cruel exploitation of British capitalism in the period of primitive capitalist accumulation.
The Lilliputian scene depicted in Volume 1 is a microcosm of the British Empire at the time. At that time, the perennial struggle between the Tories and the Whigs in Britain and the foreign war were in essence just politicians intriguing over some irrelevant aspects of the national economy and people's livelihood.
The second volume of the Great People's Republic expresses doubts and denials of the various institutions and political and religious measures of the United Kingdom through the king's sharp attack on the British electoral system, parliamentary system, and various political and religious measures that Gulliver is proud of.
In the third volume, the author points the irony at the English philosophers of the time, the scientists who are detached from reality and indulged in fantasy, the inventors of the absurd, and the critics and historians who turn black and white upside down.
**In the fourth volume, the author uses Gulliver's series of questions to expose the nature of the war, the hypocrisy of the law, and the shameful act of unscrupulous means to obtain the status of duke.

1. Gulliver stayed at home for a while, and then went out of the sedan car with the "Good Hope" to destroy the key sea. This time, Gulliver's boat is hijacked by a thief ship, and Gulliver escapes and is rescued by a flying island called "Lepita". These people are strangely looking, strangely dressed, and meditate all day long.
Kings and nobles lived on the islands, while the common people lived on three islands, including Barni Babi.
2. The rulers of the flying island countries lived a life of sunshine and rain, and abundant food and clothing, while the people of the lower classes lived a miserable life of lack of clothing and clothing. The people of the flying island nation are very concerned about scientific research, they design to extract sunlight from cucumbers, use experimental methods to reduce manure to food, use pigs to plough the land, use spiders to build webs, and use bellows to heal diseases - they are a group of utopian "all-round scholars" who do not respect the laws of science.
3. After Gulliver left the flying island, he came to Barni Babi for a visit, and visited the island's "Lagdoc Academy", the research department of this academy was some absurd subjects, as a result, the country was desolate, houses collapsed, and the people had no food and clothing, and then Gulliver came to Witchman Island, the governor of the island was proficient in magic and could summon any ghost at will.
4. Gulliver thus met with many famous people in ancient times, and found that many of the records in the history books did not conform to historical facts, or even were not reversed.
