    Gulliver’s Travels “A Voyage to the Houyhnhnms” Jonathan Swift uses the metaphors of Gulliver‚ Pedro‚ the Houyhnhnms‚ and the Yahoos in “ A Voyage to the Land of the Houyhnhnms” to satirize humans so that they could realize that to be human‚ you cannot go to opposite extremes. Swift has characters to represent man as a complete animal (the Yahoos)‚ as well as characters to represent man as wholly rational being (the Houynhnms).

We travel to bring what little we can‚ in our ignorance and knowledge‚ to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel‚ in essence‚ to become young fools again -- to slow time down and get taken in‚ and fall in love once more. The beauty of this whole process was best described
