Question

Why did Swift publish his ideas in satirical format?

Answer 1

The answer is A: He wanted his readers to see their own errors in logic and morality.

Jonathan Swift, arguably the greatest of all satirists, is very well-known for employing this form of literature that employs irony and humor, blended in a poignant social critique, to state a social issue of a problematic and unjust nature in order to signal its inhumane deficiencies and point towards a change of perspective that could foster social justice and care for those who are being wronged.
