Question

what did the gulliver and the master talk about?

Answer 1

Gulliver told his master everything about functioning Europe and England—its educational system, its political system, its social system, etc. Gulliver explained about the wars—its causes and effects—and role of advocates and judiciary in ensuring justice. Judiciary was meant to punish the criminals who committed any crime. Gulliver tells that in Europe, Houyhnhnms were the slaves and the Yahoos were the masters. The Yahoos had progressed a lot and had invented many things. Houyhnhnms were ill treated. Gulliver said that he like mkst men of his breed and the women, young ones and girls had fairer and tender skins. Gulliver found it difficult to explain his master words such as lie, falsehood, forgery, crime, law, power, punishment, government, etc.

Answer 2

Gulliver told his master about the wars
fought for religious reasons. He said
that Europeans would fight and kill if
there was any difference in opinion. For
example, whether flesh is bread or
bread is flesh, whether the juice of a
particular berry is blood or wine, or
whether whistling is a vice or virtue.

They were jealous and would murder
each other to get a government post. A
prince would invade a country and kill
half the population. He would make the
rest of them slaves. All this was done in
the name of civilization.

When Gulliver's master commented
that the Yahoos were abominable
Gulliver said that the English were
worse than them. They used their
intelligence to magnify and also excuse
their vices.

Regarding law and justice he said that
the person who was right was always at
a disadvantage. The lawyers did not
feel comfortable until they argued for
the wrong side.
