<em>"John Redding Goes to Sea" </em>is a short story written by the American author Zora Neale Hurston and published in 1921. In the story, the protagonist John Redding is an ambitious dreamer who wants to leave his hometown to explore the unknown but many events stop him to fulfill his dream.
The statement that best supports the idea that the author was an independent woman who longed to escap her small hometown is the following:
<em> "Pa, when ah gets as big as you Ah'm goin' farther than them ships. Ah'm goin' to where the sky touches the ground."</em>
The two forms of satire are Horatian Satire and Juvenalian Satire. The first kind of satire employs mockery as its primary devices and accompanies adoration for the people being mocked. While, on the other hand, the second type of satire conveys an indignant tone and harshly ridicules its subject of satire.
Pope’s magnum opus The Rae of the Locke is the best example of Horatian satire. This wonderful creation by Pope conveys the style of mild mockery and indulgence in the society. In this epic poem, he parodies social shortcomings that accompany most of the individuals in the social world. His tools expose the absurd and foible attributes that prevail in within humanity.
Moving on, The Modest Proposal by Swift exemplifies the harsh, sneering satire of the second type. In this work of art, Swift acts directly on the menace he dislikes. He conveys his ideas by being outrageous and deplorable in his statements and suggestions in the book. For example, he mentions in his book that some individuals would be utilized as food in Ireland, which shows his direct and offensive approach in writing.
To conclude, the difference in both writers’ style is their approach to the readers, in which they present their thoughts, is obvious. While Pope utilizes mild tone and mocks gently, Swift acts like an indignant satirist with a direct revolutionary advancement of statements. Both portray all the needed attributes of Horatian and Juvenalian satire, respectively.
