[Gulliver stands next to a yahoo on the Country of the Houyhnhnms]
-
Description
-
Here we see Gulliver standing next to a yahoo. “Yahoo” is the word the Houyhnhnms use to describe the humans of their country. Gulliver looks disgusted by the yahoo because of the yahoo’s differences from Gulliver. Gulliver’s opinions are a reflection of European prejudice against Native Americans. The same image appears in the 1839 Krabbe edition.
