Jonathan Swift´s satirical essay "A modest proposal" is rife with hyperbole. The entire proposal itself is hyperbolic. A hyperbole is an extreme exaggeration that is used to emphasize an author´s point. In the case of satires, like "a modest proposal", hyperbole is often used to create humor and draw the reader´s attention to the ridiculous nature of an idea or situation.
