How does Gulliver carry the important person at court?

Gulliver carries the important person at court by putting them on a chair and then into his coat pocket. This approach is significant in the context of the story, as it highlights the disparity in size between Gulliver and the inhabitants of Lilliput, where he finds himself. The Lilliputians are so tiny compared to Gulliver that they can easily be manipulated and transported by him without fear or harm.

By placing the person on a chair and then into his coat pocket, Gulliver demonstrates both his size and the absurdity of the situation—where a giant can carry a court member as if they were a small object. This method also emphasizes Gulliver's gentle nature, as he is careful not to cause discomfort to the Lilliputian. Such actions reflect the themes of power dynamics and the experience of the ‘other’ in the narrative, as Gulliver navigates a world where he is both an imposing figure and a gentle giant.
