RE: Pronouns.
Hi everyone,
I am writing a paper and am struggling with the pronouns in the following sentence. I am not sure if it is correct or how it should be properly done.
"Although Gulliver does not specifically state that the Emperor of Lilliput is King George I, his description of the emperor suggests that he symbolically represents King George I."
Thanks in advance,
Ian
