After reading Gulliv
王向嘉骏
Recently, I read a book called Gulliver's Travels. It was written by
Jonathan? Swift's works. His representative works include The War of
Books and The Story of a Bucket. This book Gulliver's Travels is an
outstanding travelogy-style satirical novel, which describes the
experience of traveling around four countries in the tone of Gulliver,
an honest surgeon. Through Gulliver's adventures in Lilliput,
Brobdingnag, Feidao and Huima, it reflects the meaningless party
struggle in the British Parliament at that time, the mercenary ruling
group and the cruel and violent criticism of the colonial war. Among the
four vivid and interesting stories, I like the story of Lilliput best.
It talked about the concerns during the negotiation between the emperor
and Gulliver: he was afraid of causing division under the pressure of
the imperial palace, neighboring countries and various parties in the
palace. In this story, what impressed me most was the suspicious,
insidious, vicious and cunning Flinner. He was the finance minister of
the Emperor Lilliput. He looked down upon the common people and was very
capable, but he did not use them in the right way and did not do good
for the common people. Gulliver regarded him as a friend, but he
retaliated against Gulliver in turn. This story is very vivid and
interesting, and it also shows the partisan struggle between the upper
and lower councils of the UK. At the same time, the adventures in Feidao
also eulogized the heroic struggle of the people against the rulers to a
certain extent. Gulliver also went to the country of British magicians,
where he could not trace back the politics of ancient Rome to the
British system. At this time, his thought had changed from supporting
the monarchy to supporting the republic. However, he was only praising
the patriarchal society in the "natural state". If this view
still belongs to "romantic retrogression", Gulliver's
description of Zhima pointed out the erosion of civilized society on
people, indicating that only people living in a natural state. Is pure
and noble. The residents of Zhima are divided into two categories:
yahoo, which looks like a wild animal, and Zhima, who can speak with
wisdom. Yahoo represents human greed and corruption, while Erzhima lives
in a primitive and kind society. It goes without saying that if human
beings fall down, they will be no different from animals. How pathetic
it is! I think this novel is tasteful. As long as you read this travel
book, your feelings will be sublimated, because you will be impressed by
the author's magic and rich imagination and wonderful description! In
addition, when you read this book to understand the troubled times in
Britain in the 18th century, you will be reminded of the war in ancient
China, and look at the fact that China is now moving towards prosperity
and strength. It's really touching. I sincerely hope that my country
will be better and stronger and become a world power.
