Answer:

An example of satirical literature would be <u>Jonathan Swift's </u><em><u>A Modest Proposal</u></em>

Explanation:

A <u>satirical work </u>uses irony and humor to mock a political or societal situation in an exaggerated manner as a means to criticize it and subtly illustrate the truth.

Jonathan Swift's <u><em>A Modest Proposal</em></u> presents a keen observation of how the poor and Irish had been treated using exaggeration by asking society to consider their infants as consumable cattle. Swift's goal is to provide insight to the readers regarding the real situation.
