... Name: Jenny Ta Student#: 205350988 Course: English 1300-Introduction to Literary Theory T.A: Lee Danes Due Date: Thurs, Feb 13, 2003. Gulliver's Travels: Ideal Standards of Conduct Jonathan Swift's travel narrative Gulliver's Travels chronicles the adventures of one man's journey to new and exciting territories. Gulliver, the narrator visits many lands and makes endless observations and speculations of the cultures and people. On many counts, he compares and contrasts his own culture with theirs. He learns throughout his journeys, the different ideals and standards of conduct exemplified in those lands and also learns that his own culture is not as ideal as he once believed. The voyage that Gulliver takes which makes him doubt his culture the most is that of the houyhnhnms. The houyhnhnms are horse-like creatures that are ideal in every aspect. They live in such a way that they are very rational and live according to nature, they are absolute in that they know right from wrong
