In “A Modest Proposal,” Jonathan Swift proposes an absurd solution to poverty in Ireland in 1729. Swift begins the essay by describing his observations of the plight of the poor and how he has thought long and hard about a solution for the widespread poverty.

Mimicking the format of a pamphlet proposing an unreasonable solution, Swift parodies the useless…

Satire is used in literature to criticize and point out society’s flaws. The criticism is usually masked in humour. Irony is commonly used in satires to expose flaws, an effective example is John Smith’s A Modest Proposal, in this essay he effectively uses irony, to communicate his argument about the poverty in Ireland. Similarly, in Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale she criticizes the society that women live in. Atwood uses satire to display the oppression of women in political, religious…

Jonathan Swift’s A Modest Proposal both captured my attention this semester with how they both were very political in addressing real life problems of their respective time periods. Thomas More was a writer of the 16th century while Jonathan Swift was a writer of the 18th century.

The subject on the surface is the proposition of selling human babies as food for profit, eradicating the poor people from the streets and providing a delicacy for the rich. The idea is presented in a very logical, straight forward way, the setting everyday life in…

It can be suggested that individuals are equipped with such powerful tools. The tools that one is speaking of, is not the power tool that can cut through sheet metal like butter or even the readily available handy dandy hammer; one is referring to the tools that an individual has within. Most individuals have them and can utilize them to their advantage, even though one might not actually realize it. Think about a facial expression for instance, that look that a parent can give their child…

A Modest Proposal by Johnathan Swift is a satirical essay, in which Swift gives a detailed over the top explanation for how to deal with the poor Irish.

Through satire he must have shocked the upper class into…
