After reading Gulliv

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.
