Who is Swift ridiculing using satire in "A Modest Proposal"?

English
2 answers:
pychu [463]4 years ago

The answer is: the English government, which seemed to care little about the Irish people.

Jonathan Swift, perhaps the greatest satirist of all time, wrote <em>A modest proposal </em>in order to critique prejudices in his time that viewed poverty through classist and unjust arguments, but also to critique British social and economic policies towards the people of Ireland in general, who, at that time, were highly mistreated and politically misrepresented.

Based on your understanding of Nectar in a Sieve, which of the following is an accurate statement about its setting?
Gnom [1K]

Nectar in a Sieve takes place during a span of about thirty years in the first half of the 20th century.

<h3>What is the story of Nectar in a Sieve?</h3>

The novel Nectar in a Sieve takes place during a span of about thirty years during the first half of the 20th century.

There are several reasons why we can assume this. First of all, the protagonist, Rukmani narrates her life. We know that she is twelve when the story begins and that she is an adult woman with an adult child when Nathan dies.

We also know that the novel chronicles a period of intense urban development in India. This is most similar to the early 20th century. Finally, we know that the novel was published in 1954.

Thus, this could be the answer.

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

The passage clearly states, "The Compact has long been  celebrated as a model of government in which the leaders derive their power from the consent of the  governed."

Therefore, it's a process of elimination from that point on.
