[Gulliver recoils at his reflection]
-
Description
-
During his time on the Country of the Houyhnhnms, Gulliver began to hate all humans, because he viewed the Houyhnhnms to be superior beings, while the yahoos were inferior. It got to the point where Gulliver began to hate his own reflection because he looked like the yahoos. This sentiment stuck with Gulliver even after he returned home to England, and he could never look at a human the same way. The same image appears in both the 1839 and 1843 Krabbe editions.
