[ Edit this paragraph] Theme
The scene of Lilliput depicted in the first volume of the novel is the epitome of the British Empire. The Tories and Whigs in Britain have been fighting all the year round and fighting foreign wars. In essence, it's just that politicians are intrigued with each other in some irrelevant sections of the national economy and people's livelihood. In the second volume of the novel, the king of Great Britain sharply criticized Gulliver's proud British electoral system, parliamentary system and various political and religious measures, and expressed doubts and denials about various British systems and political and religious measures. In the third volume of the novel, the author pointed the irony at the British philosopher at that time, a scientist who was divorced from reality and addicted to fantasy. Absurd inventors, critics and historians who turn black and white upside down, etc. In the fourth volume of the novel, the author uses Gulliver to answer a series of questions and exposes the essence of war, the hypocrisy of law and unscrupulous means to obtain the shameful behavior of the duke. Looking at the whole plot of the novel, Gulliver's Travels has a clear political tendency. Its critical edge, Focus on attacking parliamentary politics and reactionary religious forces in Britain at that time. The artistic features of Gulliver's Travels are mainly reflected in the use of satire, and sharp and profound satire is the soul of this work. At that time, Britain was the object of attack and sarcasm by the author. Gulliver's first adventure was Lilliput. In this miniature country, the struggle between parties was deadlocked. Neighbors not only want to conquer each other, but also enslave each other. The king of Lilliput selects officials by means of rope competition. In order to get a few colored silk threads from the king, officials do ridiculous performances like clowns. This small court is the epitome of Britain at that time, and even Lilliput's political habits and regulations are exactly the same as the British political situation at that time. In the second volume, the author criticizes Britain by name. Gulliver introduced the history, system and present situation of Britain to the king of Great Britain at length, as well as all kinds of things to defend himself for the country. However, from the perspective of Great Britain, the history of Britain is full of "greed, competition, cruelty, hypocrisy, lust, sinister and ambition". In the king's words, the author said, "such a humble and incompetent person. In the third volume, through the boring and absurd scientific research conducted by people in Lagardo Academy of Sciences, the pseudo-science in Britain at that time was satirized; The description of the island of Lepita criticizes Britain's exploitation and oppression of Ireland. The novel not only criticizes the social status quo, but also satirizes human nature itself at a deeper level. In the fourth volume, the discussion about "money" is just like this. Gulliver came to the country of horses without money and military police and explained to his horse owner: "Our wild horses there. There is not enough time. Because of their nature, they are either extravagant or insatiable. The rich enjoy the fruits of the poor's labor. The number ratio between the poor and the rich is 1,111 to 1. Therefore, most of our people are forced to live a miserable life ... "The author noticed the pure money relationship between people in capitalist society, and thus questioned human nature. When the author satirized and attacked the British parliamentary politics and reactionary religious forces at that time mercilessly and acrimoniously, some bluntly ridiculed each other, some used the lips of foreigners, some used metaphors to satirize people, and some used animals to satirize people. All these are funny and funny. The organic combination of the fantasy of the plot and the authenticity of the reality also adds unique artistic charm to the novel. Although the author shows a magical world like a fictional fairy tale, it is based on the social life in Britain at that time.
