What are the main solutions that Swift's proposal would solve?.

English
1 answer:
lesya [120]1 year ago
3 0

Jonathan Swift proposes in A Modest Proposal that the Irish eat their children for a variety of reasons. He claims that it will aid in population control, generate revenue, prevent crime, and produce fashionable clothing from children.

The essay, disguised as an economic treatise, proposes that the country alleviate Irish poverty by butchering the children of the Irish poor and selling them as food to wealthy English landlords. Swift's suggestion is a scathing critique of England's legal and economic exploitation of Ireland.

It proposes that the most obvious solution to Ireland's economic crisis is for the Irish to sell their children as food; shockingly, it also suggests various methods of preparing and serving them. Following several failed attempts in parliament to enact policies, Irish writer Jonathan Swift channeled his rage into A Modest Proposal, a satirical pamphlet that proposed child-eating as the only viable solution to the country's famine.

How hard is being Afghan female student ?<br> Essay pls <br> If u know the Afghanistan situation
Naddik [55]

Answer:

There was an almost surreal quiet in the classroom at Kabul University on the morning of Sunday, Aug. 15. It was the start of the school week, and the financial-management professor had just begun answering questions posed by the students. Then, a young man burst through the doors, a look of frantic terror in his eyes.

“He told us that the Taliban have captured Kabul. He said, ‘they are coming here. Run!’” says Farah, one of the students, 24, recalling the moment. “I could not feel my hands and my feet, they were shaking,” she says. Farah, like every woman TIME spoke to for this story, asked to be identified by a pseudonym out of fear for their safety. “We just stood and started collecting all our notebooks,” she says.

write a story on your voice, hopes, dreams and aspirations for a sustainable future with 1200 to 1500 words long
scoray [572]

Explanation:

   I have many hopes and dreams in my mind at this moment and my age, some of them usually seem impossible but I am hoping that I will accomplish all of them If I am working enough hard for them.

  For me, sustainable life means to have a regular job and family with all love and support that are important for one man to have. I am often thinking about the future and my future job since it is a big part of a sustainable future and I always wanted to become a teacher.

My dream is to work with the younger ones and teach them everything useful to them. I also love that job because it can bring you many friends, beautiful events and for me, it is not something difficult to do because I dreamed about it long ago and I dream about it now. Since my mom is also a teacher I would like to have a similar life liker her because even if she was working every day in the week when we are young, she always had time for us and I want my kids to feel the same. I think that this kind of job is the best for my future. Job isn't the only thing that it is in my sustainable future, the other things are happiness and joy with my family that I would love to have. It would be wonderful for me to have a big family and many kids.

    I think that for success, love, happiness and hard work are the main keys and If we are working enough hard for it, we can accomplish anything.

"I Heard a Fly Buzz When I Died"
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

In this poem, the irony is that the last thing the author can perceive while waiting for her death is a fly buzzing while waiting for death to come to her.

Explanation:

  As is already known, Emily Dickinson was known for dealing with subjects such as death. The fascination that this author had with the death led her to write great poems that were highly recognized in the environment.

One of them is "I Heard a Fly Buzz When I Died".

While she waits for death, and for the "<em>King</em>" who comes to look for her (which could be interpreted as God), the visit she receives is not from any divinity, but rather from a fly, which ironically represents the opposite of the divine, or to a paradise. The fly is the one that comes to rest on her dead flesh while everyone is there with her waiting for that moment.
