Answer:

Swift’s use of verbal irony.

Explanation:

The fact that Swift uses such a scholarly, formal tone in this excerpt only makes it more clear that he is using verbal irony. Irony refers to the use of devices and circumstances that represent the opposite of what is to be expected. In this case, the subject is extremely horrible (the killing and breeding of children), but the tone is not as desperate and angry as would be expected. Instead, it is calm, collected and scholarly. This is an example of verbal irony.

Explanation:

"White Fang" is a famous novel written by Jack London. It tells the story of a half dog - half wolf cub named White Fang who lived in an Indian camp.

During his growing-up, he was constantly bullied by other, older dogs, attacking him in groups.

Also, he was constantly beaten by his owner, who, sensing his wild side, decided to break his spirit and tame him as soon as possible.
