Hello, my name is Sayaka Yokoi. I would like to post about Gulliver's Travels. When I went to the elementary school, I read only "A journey to Lilliput" story. I drew a picture of Gulliver in the class. This story is very famous in Japan, too, but many people don't know other voyages. Also, I didn't know "A voyage to Laputa" until I took a lecture. I really like "Tenku no Shiro Laputa", so I want to read it. Gulliver's Travels also has lesson. In the 18 century, England was strong country, and sometimes did war to get new countries. Swift written the differences between religions and ancients vs modern to use irony and parody. We can know the background in those days to read this story.
