Peter Giles refers to Hythloday as reliable and knowledgeable about his speeches. Giles says that there is no living human being who can give more information than Hythloday. There is humor in the story’s narrator, who tells foolish things but is portrayed as knowledgeable. Readers are warned about Hythloday making it hard to believe the story he is telling.
