Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

Jonathan Swift was a poet, a satirist, a cleric and an essayist of Anglo-Irish origin. He was popular for his literary works which include; Gulliver's travels (1726), Modest proposal (1629), A tale of tub(1704), and An Argument against abolishing Christianity (1712).

Swift was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1667. He attended the Dublin university and was studying for his master's degree when the political troubles in Ireland which surrounded the Glorious revolution, forced him to leave for England in 1688.

Swift, on publishing his works, gained a reputation as a writer and became increasingly active politically. He supported the Glorious revolution and had belonged to the Whigs, growing up.

He was later recruited by the Tory leadership who he felt were sympathetic to his cause of fighting against the return of the Catholic dominance. On the Tory's platform, he opposed the Whig's government and was an important part of the inner circle of the Tory's government.

Semenov [28]
I am pretty sure that about 100 years ago, <span>60 percent </span> of people lived on farms in rural areas. I consider this option as the most suitable one as in this perion of time in most of rural areas there was quite  nice conditions for setting a farm and growing plants in there. It was good both for life and for bussiness, so a lot of people support the idea of living on farms.
Do hope that helps!
