In the "modest proposal", Jonathan uses a satirical and an ironical way of presenting his ideas to grab the attention of the audience.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A "Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift is a satirical and an ironical way in which the social and economic problems ,like poverty, have been presented. There have been absurd suggestions given in the essay by him to fight with the problem of poverty in the society like the idea of selling the children of the poor to the rich people.

Jonathan Swift decided to choose this absurd, sarcastic, ironical way to deal with such a concrete problem of the society so that he could grab the attention of the people towards the increasing problem of poverty in the society where the words mean the opposite of what they actually suggest.
