Answer 2

Answer:

They are different in their characterization, and the imagery used by the writers.

Explanation:

"The Lady's Dressing Room" by Jonathan Swift is, in true form to his genre, a satire about how the women take care of their bodies but not room or surroundings. To him, women dress up good but did not think of making their rooms or surroundings clean. Their minds are just focused on being pretty. Depicting a negative attitude towards them, Swift uses a lone fictional character in his poem. And with a harsh and unpleasant imagery, he showed how the women's bodies are to be averted, considering the time and actual "behind the scenes" that makes them pretty.

Meanwhile, the poem "The Dean's Provocation for Writing The Dressing Room" by Lady Mary Wortley Montagu is a direct contrast of what Swift wrote. She employs two real characters in her poem, using an imagery that shows the pomp and arrogance of the male gender. Montagu's work gave a negative impression of men, making fun of them, depicting them as pompous and foolish, stupid.

And the last difference between these two works is that Swift is repulsed by the women's body while Montagu is similarly repulsed by the male gender.
