Which of the following works is an example of a reductio ad absurdum?
Vikki [24]
In order to answer this question, we first have to understand what "reductio ad absurdum" is. Reductio ad absurdum is a type of argument that seeks to make a point by using absurdity. Basically, it is an absurd or ridiculous argument.

Now, let's look at the literary works given. 

Doctor Faustus is a play that tells about a doctor who so desires knowledge that he sells his soul to the devil. He makes a pact with the devil and receives great knowledge. Of course, it is not surprising that at the end of the play, the devil comes to take his due. 

An Essay Concerning Human Understanding is an essay that seeks to explain the origins of human knowledge. It is a philosophical work rooted in rationalism, and it does not use absurdity at all.

The R a p e of the Lock is a long narrative poem that tells the story of a woman whose hair was cut against her will, leading to a great battle. While this story is a little absurd (cutting a small piece of hair is not nice, but should not lead to war), it is not making the argument for or against anything.

A Modest Proposal is an essay which argues for a solution to poverty in Ireland. Poverty at the time was widespread and many were starving. The author had a unique solution: eating children! The author outlined many advantages to his idea. Of course he wasn't being serious -- he didn't really want anyone to sell their children and he certainly didn't want to eat them -- but by making such a ridiculous argument he was shining light on the problem and other solutions that are much more reasonable. As a result, A Modest Proposal is an example of reductio ad absurdum because it uses absurdity to make an argument.
