Description

What if an essay could shock, amuse, and provoke all at once? In this episode, we’re uncovering the brilliance of Jonathan Swift’s A Modest Proposal. Published in 1729, this satirical essay suggests a shocking solution to poverty in Ireland: selling children as food for the wealthy. But beneath the absurdity lies a sharp critique of 18th-century society and its indifference to human suffering. It’s also a masterclass in using bold ideas and sharp wit to make a lasting impact. If you’re ready to explore how these techniques can elevate your academic writing, stay tuned.
