Answer:
Sir Gawain - one of King Arthur's knights
The Green Knight - a warrior who makes a challenge to the court
Camelot - King Arthur's castle
Explanation:
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a late 14th-century Middle English chivalric romance. It begins with the Green Knight visiting King Arthur's court and castle (Camelot) and challenging him and his knights to strike him with his own axe on the condition that the challenger finds him in exactly one year to receive a blow in return. Sir Gawain, one of Arthur's knights, accepts this challenge.
Answer:
The author argues, by hard-edged economic reasoning as well as from a self-righteous moral stance, for a way to turn this problem into its own solution. His proposal, in effect, is to fatten up these undernourished children and feed them to Ireland's rich land-owners. Children of the poor could be sold into a meat market at the age of one, he argues, thus combating overpopulation and unemployment, sparing families the expense of child-bearing while providing them with a little extra income, improving the culinary experience of the wealthy, and contributing to the overall economic well-being of the nation.
The full title of Swift's pamphlet is "A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People from Being a Burthen to their Parents, or the Country, and for Making them Beneficial to the Publick." The tract is an ironically conceived attempt to "find out a fair, cheap, and easy Method" for converting the starving children of Ireland into "sound and useful members of the Commonwealth." Across the country poor children, predominantly Catholics, are living in squalor because their families are too poor to keep them fed and clothed.
