Gulliver’s Travels, Part II, was an interesting sequel to Part I; rather than Gulliver’s giantness with the Lilliputians, he is of Lilliputian size to the inhabitants of Brobdingnag, and everything else is large to match the inhabitants. I suppose in a sense Gulliver learned how it felt to be a Lilliputian in his presence, or rather, how a Lilliputian would feel among the peoples of Europe.

Gulliver’s Travels certainly alters my view of the world, in a rather odd way. After reading of the smallness of the Lilliputians, I began to imagine similarly small visitors to my room, and felt a giant living in a world of giants in which some small people also roam. Then, upon reading of Gulliver’s travels in Brobdingnag, the giant’s land, I felt small in a sense, though it was much harder to imagine people of so great a size than it was to imagine them little, and hence my mind pretended that Gulliver came to visit me, with myself as a giant. How it twists my mind!

One fascinating point in the latter part was a giant’s book that Gulliver read which talked about the possibility, in fact the philosophical necessity, of the past existence of giants, a larger form of humanity less fragile compared to the world. Of course, this implies giants larger than the ones with which Gulliver was presently residing, and also explained the current giants from the point of view of Gulliver’s European homeland.

Could there be infinitely more giants, each set greater in size than the previous, yet somehow no race found by any of the others, excepting the case of Gulliver? Presumably it might go the other way, with smaller and smaller versions of humanity.

Suppose this was true, and that the country of each race was larger or smaller proportionally, as Gulliver had experienced. Each race would feel inferior, weak in regard to its environment and thus postulate the existence of giants. Could this not support the notion that humanity was meant to be in the proportion to its environment as it is, and that there is some reason behind that, since it would be so in each race of giants, giant giants, Lilliputians, and mini-Lilliputians? What a thought!
