Both The Rap of the Lock, by Alexander Pope, and A Modest Proposal, by Jonathan Swift use elements of satire to show a viewpoint
vova2212 [387]

The poem by Alexander Pope is a mock-heroic narrative poem, an example of a high Burlesque. The theme of the poem is a small incident that Pope compared to the epic world of the gods, emphasizing the absurdity of all actions that preceded the incident, as well as those that followed. The incident happened in real life, and this fact only intensifies the absurdity and foolishness of society at that time in England. Namely, the incident is inflated to such an extent, only because it is the character that caused the incident, the Catholic, in the otherwise Anglican England. At the time, there were social limitations, very strict for anyone who was Catholic.  The poet uses essentially satires, with the help of elements epic narrative, sneering and parody, to emphasize fake heroism with prominent Englishmen.

This poem has contributed to popularity and interest in highlighting fake heroism in Europe.


In a similar tone is the Swift's essay, which in his essay ironically suggests preventing children of the poor Irish Catholics from being born for their parents or state, but for the benefit of the public. this also was in real life. And here he emphasizes the attitude towards the Catholics, especially from Ireland. He ironically suggests, in an essay, that children should be sold to rich people for food, and so mitigate their economic problems. Also ironically, Swift puts rationally above the human.

This essay is considered one of the greatest examples of the use of irony as an element of satire.

What ways is Douglass’s speech similar to a sermon a minister might deliver in a church.
Flura [38]

Answer:

The speech of Douglass is similar to a sermon preached in a church because just as a minister speak a message of warning and rebuke, grace and hope, Douglass delivered his speech.

Explanation:

On July 5, 1852, Frederick Douglass was invited by the Rochester Ladies’ Anti-Slavery Society to speak something on the celebration of Fourth July (America's Independence Day).

Douglass, like a minister, began with the words of thanksgiving, thanking and appreciating the efforts of the Founding Fathers. Then, he began to speak what does the Fourth July mean to slaves. He began to rebuke the churches, who defended slavery by quoting scriptures from the Bible. He rebuked them for not standing for right cause.

The way Douglass outlined his speech is very much similar to a sermon's structure. A structure which brings out the message of hope and grace and warning and rebuke as well.
