Question

Describe gulliver's stay in lilliput and Blefuscu

Answer 1

Gulliver helps save the Lilliputians during a battle with Blefuscu, their mortal enemies, by destroying Blefuscu's fleet. Nonetheless, Gulliver falls out of favor with the emperor of Lilliput because he refuses to destroy the Blefuscudians. After Gulliver is accused of treason in Lilliput, he escapes to the nearby island of Blefuscu, where two guides, who are expecting him, guide him to the capital city. There, the emperor and empress greet him, and Gulliver lies on the ground to kiss their hands. He must rest on the ground under his coverlet, as there is no house or bed to fit him.

Gulliver then sees an overturned boat off shore, and the emperor of Blefuscu lends him some vessels and a crew to tow the boat ashore. Gulliver receives the emperor's permission and materials to fix up the boat and use it to return home. The monarch also grants Gulliver protection when an envoy arrives from Lilliput and demands that Gulliver return there, as the monarch of Blefuscu is pleased with Gulliver for having brought about peace between the two nations.

The court allows Gulliver to borrow the labor of 500 workingmen to make sails from their linen, and Gulliver fashions an anchor from a stone and chains from the small ropes and chains he finds on the island. Carpenters on the island help him sand his boat, and he uses the tallow of 300 cows to grease the boat. When he is about to depart, the emperor gives him 50 purses and a full-length picture of himself, which Gulliver stores in his glove. Gulliver also loads the carcasses of sheep and oxen, as well as live cows and bulls, and drinks on board his ship, and the emperor bids him a fond farewell.

I hope this helps you.

Describe Gulliver's experience in Lilliput.

When Gulliver first wakes up in Lilliput, he feels a desire to suddenly seize forty or fifty of the tiny Lilliputians and "dash them against the Ground." He doesn't act on this urge because he remembers the sting of their arrows and does not wish to relive the experience. However, his unnecessarily violent wish might, perhaps, shed some light on a point that Swift is trying to make about human nature. Gulliver seems to feel the desire to squash the Lilliputians for no other reason than that he can; are humans naturally disposed to assert our physical superiority and might over those who are weaker than we are? After all, when Gulliver lands in Brobdingnag, he expects to be treated in the same way he considered handling the Lilliputians.

Gulliver also undergoes an inventory of his pockets by the Lilliputians. One of the items they find there is his watch, and they determine that it is likely "the God he worships" because "he seldom did any Thing without consulting it." Gulliver seems to confirm this when he tells them that the watch "pointed out the Time for every Action in his Life." Again, Swift seems to be commenting on humanity's flaws: is it right, even healthy, to be so bound to the clock? Shouldn't we eat when we're hungry, and not when the clock tells us? Shouldn't we sleep when we're tired, and not when the clock dictates? Why do we insist on becoming slaves to the clock when our own bodies and minds can tell us when we need something or when we're finished with something?

Gulliver also notes the unusual ways that candidates for public offices are appointed.  It has nothing to do with their qualifications for the job, but rather with their ability to jump highest on a tightrope or succeed in a trial of dexterity. Further, he remarks on the long-standing feud between those groups which war over which end of the egg to crack: the big or the small. Over ten thousand people have died as a result of this conflict. In a rare moment of insight, Gulliver states his opinion that this decision should "be left to every Man's Conscience [...] to determine." In this way, Swift continues to poke fun at England: both in terms of how, often, considerations that have little to do with qualification go into helping people to achieve high positions as well as the Protestant-Catholic conflict that raged for a great many years and likewise resulted in thousands of unnecessary deaths.
