As part of the settlement, the British ordered the scholars to hand over their treasures. The scholars protested. "Without us,"

At last the British gave in and allowed the scholars to keep the bulk of their collections. But they insisted on taking the Rosetta Stone. Reluctantly, General Menou turned it over to the British general, Hutchinson. "You can have it," he said, "because you are the stronger of us two."

The following question refers to Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift. Which sentence describes the culture group interaction be
astraxan [27]

It is possible to argue that the sentence that best describes the culture group interactions between Gulliver and the Brobdingnagians is that they are kind to Gulliver but do not treat him as an equal. Despite the fact that he was taught their language by a nine years old girl - Glumdalclitch - who stood ¬not above 40 feet tall, being small for her age" his conversations with the King proves that the Brobdingnagians consider humans in general as below themselves, the King consider the English particularly "the most pernicious race of little odious vermin that nature ever suffered to crawl upon the surface of the earth". The king also scalds Gulliver when he tries to o interest the statesman in the use of gunpowder.

They find human institutions way below their own and they do not favour too much interaction or contact with humans, their laws are simple and straightforward, contrary to most human institutions; they value reason over emotions and it can be said that they are a race of mathematicians, being also profoundly interested in poetry and literature.
