In doing so, Swift, not only exposes Gulliver’s enormous phallus to the vulnerable Empress he also compels the reader to imagine the arrogance and patriarchal nature of colonialism; Gulliver, having earlier consumed copious amounts of glimigrim, exclaims: ‘By the luckiest chance in the world. I had not discharged myself...the heat I had contracted by coming very near the flames, and by my labouring to quench them, made the wine begin to operate my urine’ (Swift, 1992, p. 54). Gulliver…
financially and health wise. Swift states that we should make smarter food choices instead of going by more are better. Walsh prosperously reveals his argument not trying to scare us into being vegetarians, but for us to make healthier food choices. The Article starts off by connecting with the reader deeply.

He gave statistics about population increase and immigration. Swift’s speaker is not an expert. He believes experts are not…

Through the use of hyperbole and irony, Swift, in a highly sardonic tone, reveals the absurdity of England’s oppression on Ireland’s economy while also exposing the callousness of the wealthy upper class. While the entire piece itself was widely hyperbolic, Swift…
In Gulliver's Travels, Swift unpacks certain dark aspects of human nature, namely, its innate selfishness. In contrast to modern theorists like Locke, who contend that the pursuit of self-interest will serve the common good, Swift underscores the potential for unleashing the beastliness in human nature, loosening the traditional moral constraints on avarice and ambition. As a commentary on the modern project, Swift introduces the crude and uncontrollably desirous "Yahoos," who, given the…
While it may appear that city growth was ideal for any group of people at the time- and in turn contribute to moral growth- Swift suggests that growth of cities has caused inadequate public health. Whilst Gulliver is in Laputa he exclaims that he was “surprised to find corruption grown so high... by the force of luxury so lately introduced” which indicates he thinks luxury and selfishness causes corruption; and luxuries tend to come around when empires have grown and developed and therefore…
