""Custom familiarizes one to anything,"" Dickens the traveler says in American Notes. He bitterly criticizes customs both in America and in England, and most importantly, warns against the kind of familiarization which makes people narrow-minded, insensitive, and impervious. Dickens, as the first-person narrator, is a satirist like Gulliver, bringing into light the trap and horror of familiarization and its relation to imagination. He does this through direct allusions to Gulliver's Travels and his own keen and effective satire.}, pages = {103--112}, title = {American Notes : Charles Dickens's Version of Gulliver's Travel}, volume = {7}, year = {2012}, yomi = {アマノ, ミユキ} }
