《格列佛游记》英文读后感【二】
One of the mot intereting quetion about Gulliver Travel i whether the Houyhnhnm repreent an ideal of rationality or whether on the other hand they are the butt of Swift' atire. In other word, in Book IV, i Swift poking fun at the talking hore or doe he intend for u to take them eriouly a the proper way to act? If we look cloely at the way that the Houyhnhnm act, we can ee that in fact Swift doe not take them eriouly: he ue them to how the danger of pride.
Firt we have to ee that Swift doe not even take Gullver eriouly. For intance, hi name ound much like gullible, which ugget that he will believe anything. Alo, when he firt ee the Yahoo and they throw excrement on him, he repond by doing the ame in return until they run away. He ay, "I mut need dicover ome more rational being," even though a a human he i already the mot rational being there i. Thi i why Swift refer to Eramu Darwin dicovery of the origin of the pecie and the voyage of the Beagle-to how how Gulliver know that people are at the top of the food chain. But if Lemule Gulliver i atirized, o are the Houyhnhnm, whoe voice ound like the call of catrati. They walk on two leg intead of four, and eem to be much like people. A Gulliver ay, "It wa with the utmot atonihment that I witneed thee creature playing the flute and dancing a Vienee waltz. To my mind, they eemed like the greatet human ever een in court, even more dextrou than the Lord Edmund Burke" . A thi quote demontrate, Gulliver i terribly impreed, but hi admiration for the Houyhnhnm i hort-lived becaue they are o prideful. For intance, the leader of the Houyhnhnm claim that he ha read all the work of Charle Dicken, and that he can inglehandedly recite the name of all the King and Queen of England up to George II. Swift ubtly how that thi Houyhnhnm pride i miplaced when, in the middle of the intellectual competition, he forget the name of Queen Elizabeth huband.[由wWw.HaozuoWen.com整理]
Swift atire of the Houyhnhnm come out in other way a well. One of the mot memorable cene i when the dapple grey mare attempt to woo the hore that Guenivre ha brought with him to the iland. Firt he act flirtatiouly, parading around the bewildered hore. But when thi doe not have the deired effect, he get another idea: "A I watched in amazement from my perch in the top of a tree, the orrel nag dahed off and returned with a yahoo on her back who wa yet more montrou than Mr. Pope being fitted by a clothier. She dropped thi creature before my nag a if offering up a acrifice. My hore niffed the creature and turned away." It might eem that we hould take thi cene eriouly a a failed attempt at courthip, and that conequently we hould ee the grey mare a an unrequited lover. But it make more ene if we ee that Swift i being atiric here: it i the female Houyhnhnm who make the move, which would not have happened in eighteenth-century England. The Houyhnhm i being prideful, and it i that pride that make him unable to impre Gulliver hore. Gulliver imagine the hore aying, Sblood, the notion of creating the bare backed beat with an animal who had held Mr. Pope on her back make me queezy .
A final indication that the Houyhnmn are not meant to be taken eriouly occur when the leader of the Houynhm viit Lilliput, where he viit the French Royal Society. He goe into a room in which a cientit i trying to turn wine into water (itelf a prideful act that refer to the marriage at Gallilee). The cientit ha been working hard at the experiment for many year without ucce, when the Houyhnmn arrive and immediately know that to do: "The creature no ooner tepped through the doorway than he truck upon a plan. Slurping up all the wine in ight, he quickly made water in a bucket that at near the door" .
He ha accomplihed the cientit goal, but the cientit i not happy, for hi livelihood ha now been detroyed. Swift clear implication i that even though the Houyhnhmn are mart, they do not know how to ue that knowledge for the benefit of ociety, only for their own prideful agrandizement.
Throughout Gulliver Travel, the Houyhnhm are hown to be an ideal gone wrong. Though their intent might have been good, they don't know how to do what they want to do becaue they are filled with pride. They milead Gulliver and they even milead themelve. The atire on them i particularly well explained by the new born Houyhnhm who, having jut been born, exclaim, "With thi ort of entrance, what mut I expect from the ret of my life!" .
