So, don't skip the video. If you like this video, don't forget to share it with your friends and colleagues. Because I started this YouTube channel, My knowledge should be shared by many people. The purpose is that many people should know about it. I won't bother to talk about subscribing and liking. But my motive is that many people should see this and benefit from it. So, without further ado, let's go to the video. The author of this work is Jonathan Swift. He is an Anglo-Irish novelist, essayist, poet. He has written a lot of pamphlets. He has written for both Wicks and Torres. His two famous novels are Gulliver's Travel and A Tale of a Tub. His period is from mid-17th century to mid-18th century. In the period he was writing and publishing, He published many works with his pen name. One of his pen names is Lemuel Gulliver. When he first published this novel, He published his name as Lemuel Gulliver. In the later edition, he changed it to Jonathan Swift. Now, let's go to the novels. There are four parts in this novel. This novel is based on these four parts. In this novel, the protagonist, Lemuel Gulliver, Is a sea wanderer. He goes to many places in the sea. And he gets stuck alone in these four places. And he gets different experiences in each place. That too, in a very odd and strange situation in the environment. So, first, part one. A voyage to Lilliput. In this part, the basic details about Gulliver are given. Lemuel Gulliver was born in Nottinghamshire. He is the third child out of five. When he was 14 years old, He studied in Emanuel College in Cambridge for three years. Later, he went to London and worked as an apprentice to James Bates. James Bates is a surgeon. After learning a lot from him, After four years, he went to Nottinghamshire to see his father again. At that time, he said to his father, I want to travel the world. For that, I have to go to Leiden and study subjects. By studying like that, I will go on many voyages. And my studies will teach me the necessary things for those voyages. So, his father and his relatives arrange 40 pounds and give it to Gulliver. And they promise to send him 30 pounds every year. Gulliver studied for two years and seven months. After completing his studies, he settled in London as a surgeon. As he wished, he started going on voyages. His first few voyages were with Captain Abraham Panel. I missed the double N for Panel. Please mark it. In his voyages, he was a surgeon. After a few years, he got married to Mary Burden. Again, I put the T on the wrong side. Sorry, please change it. After a few days of their marriage, Mr. Bates, who was an apprentice, died. After his death, he traveled to East and West Indies. He traveled many times. He traveled for six years as a surgeon. Gulliver liked to learn the language and customs of other people through voyages. But, as he was on voyages for many years, he started to like the sea. At that time, he wanted to spend time with his wife and family. For three years, he spent time with his family. After three years, Captain William Prickard gave him an offer. He wanted to go on a South Seaside voyage. This time, Gulliver went on a sea voyage again. Again, a typological mistake. William. Please mark it. Gulliver started his voyage on May 4, 1699 from Bristol. His early days of voyages were thrilling and successful. When Gulliver went to East Indies, he faced a fierce storm. Because of this storm, all of them went to the North West of Vandaman's Land. In this storm, many of his crew members lost their lives. Many of them died. On November 5, the wind was still strong. So, his crew members were separated. Gulliver and five other crew members were on a small boat. In the end, Gulliver was stranded on a shore. When he woke up, it was dark. It was around 8 o'clock in the evening. He slept for 8 to 9 hours. When he woke up, he felt a thin thread around his body. When he looked back, he saw a group of people who were less than 6 inches tall. They were standing around him. At one point, he woke up. Because he couldn't sleep in the same position for a long time. The thread was very thin. It was like a small needle. As soon as he removed the thread, he saw a group of people. They were afraid that Gulliver would attack them. So, they used their weapons to attack Gulliver. There were hundreds of arrows aimed at Gulliver. But, Gulliver didn't get hurt. It was just a small needle. It wasn't a big deal. The people there tried to tell Gulliver something. But, Gulliver didn't understand. Because, Gulliver's language was different. After a while, a famous scholar from India was asked to communicate with Gulliver. He tried to communicate with Gulliver. He gave a big speech. But, Gulliver didn't understand anything. Gulliver asked Gulliver, I want food. The people there understood Gulliver's gestures. So, they sent Gulliver a lot of meat. Then, they asked Gulliver for a drink. Gulliver was given a sweet wine-like drink. After Gulliver drank the wine, they rubbed a pleasant smell on Gulliver's face and hands. So, Gulliver fell asleep again. Gulliver's island name was Lilliput. The people there were Lilliputians. Almost 9000 Lilliputians gathered and took Gulliver to the center of the country as a prisoner. That's what the king ordered. The people took Gulliver to a tight structure. They took Gulliver with 21 wheels. They took him for 2 hours. They took him to rest in the middle of the night. Then, they took him again. In the center of the city, there are 7 windows in a palanquin-shaped temple. They tied chains to Gulliver's legs. Gulliver spent 14 days in the palanquin. He couldn't sit or sleep well. After 14 days, the people gave Gulliver a bed, clothes of his size, etc. The people gave Gulliver all the food he needed. For 1724 days, Gulliver was given food that Lilliputians could eat. For a long time, Gulliver stayed there as a prisoner. 6 great scholars of that country taught Gulliver their language. After 3 weeks of learning from the prison, Gulliver started communicating in their language. He asked the king to set him free. The king agreed. But, Gulliver had to walk only on the edge of the field. No one should die because of him. No one should trample him. Gulliver handled everything very carefully. Another reason for Gulliver to stay in that country was to help the Lilliputians to destroy the army soldiers belonging to Blefuscu Island. Gulliver agreed. After some time, the principal secretary of Lilliputian Island, Reldresel, told Gulliver about their country and their enemy. Many years ago, there were two parties in their kingdom. Tramexan or High Hill and Tramexan or Low Hill. Our emperor, who is now the king, has appointed low hills as his government. That's why the people in High Hill are very angry. They are the ones who are against us in Blefuscu Island. The reason for this is that his grandfather, who is now the king, used to cut the egg from the larger portion. But when he cut the egg, his finger was cut. So his father passed a rule that everyone should cut the egg from the smaller portion. Because of this rule, there were many civil wars. Because of this, the emperor died. His son also lost his position. Because of this, there were many civil wars. Even in their holy book, Blender Crawl, the people are fighting each other. The reason for this is that Great Britain and France are fighting each other. This is a satirical work.
