Jim Crow laws were a collection of state and local statutes that legalized racial segregation.

Jim Crow laws were based on the theory of white supremacy and were a reaction to Reconstruction. In the depression-racked 1890s, racism appealed to whites who feared losing their jobs to blacks.

Swift made an effort to challenge societal standards and overthrow the oppressive English government in "A Modest Proposal." Dreadful situations demand desperate measures to make one conscious. Satire is one of such techniques. There is no tolerance in satire.

The essay A Modest Proposal, which is disguised as an economic dissertation, suggests that Ireland's poverty be reduced by killing its underprivileged children and selling them to the English landowners as food.

Swift's proposal is a stinging indictment of England's illegal and economic abuse of Ireland. Its full title is A Modest Proposal for Making Children of Poor People Beneficial to the Public and Preventing Them from Being a Burden to Their Parents or the Country.

When was beowulf most likely composed? when did its events probably take place?
bearhunter [10]

<span>The composition of the poem also can be only assumed in the light of various facts present. One certain fact is that the composition took place after the death of Hygelac which was in 521 AD. If we look at the assumed date of the death of Beowulf it tells us that most likely the composition date is after 580 AD as that is the assumed death date of Beowulf. The manuscript was written before 1000 AD so in between these periods was Beowulf composed.</span>

When we look at the cultural values and various contexts of the epic it tells us that Beowulf took place in the time of the Old English period or which is popularly known as Anglo-Saxon period.
