How does the authors word choice in this excerpt imply a message other than the one explicitly stated? Analyze specific phases w
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The author argues, by hard-edged economic reasoning as well as from a self-righteous moral stance, for a way to turn this problem into its own solution. His proposal, in effect, is to fatten up these undernourished children and feed them to Ireland's rich land-owners. Children of the poor could be sold into a meat market at the age of one, he argues, thus combating overpopulation and unemployment, sparing families the expense of child-bearing while providing them with a little extra income, improving the culinary experience of the wealthy, and contributing to the overall economic well-being of the nation.

The full title of Swift's pamphlet is "A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People from Being a Burthen to their Parents, or the Country, and for Making them Beneficial to the Publick." The tract is an ironically conceived attempt to "find out a fair, cheap, and easy Method" for converting the starving children of Ireland into "sound and useful members of the Commonwealth." Across the country poor children, predominantly Catholics, are living in squalor because their families are too poor to keep them fed and clothed.

Explanation:

The essay progresses through a series of surprises that first shocks the reader and then causes her to think critically not only about policies, but also about motivations and values.

what are the limitations of having nick serve as the narrator of this story? How does chapter 2 make this limitation obvious?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The limitations of having Nick as a narrator is that the readers are not able to know the thoughts of other characters. In First-person narrative, readers get to know only what narrator knows and what he sees and perceives about the event.

The evidence of this limitation in chapter is apparent when Nick gets drunk and he himself claims that his drunkness <em>has a  dim hazy cast over it.</em>

Explanation:

The Great Gatsby is a novel written by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The novel is about Jay Gatsby and is narrated by Nick Carraway.

The story is narrated from First-person point of view. The limitation of having Nick as a narrator is that readers are not able to perceive the thoughts of other characters, especially that of Jay Gatsby. The readers get to know only what limited view of Nick narrated to them. They are able to see only what Nick sees and nothing beyond it or other's viewpoint. It is the viewpoint of Nick that moulds the story of Gatsby.

This limitation is apparent in Chapter 2 of the novel when Nick gets drunk at the party and himself admits that his drunkness <em>has a  dim hazy cast over it. </em>This suggests that Nick was not able to trust his own narration of this particular event after he got intoxicated.
