Answer:
- He wanted his reader to view him as someone with a “crazy” persona. He wanted to be viewed as someone who was outrageous and overacted with beliefs that were out of line. This is essential so as to invoke some emotions from them.
- I noticed when he first started describing the reasoning for his proposal. I think a modern audience would catch on quicker because today we have a better idea of satire and read about it as well as work with it a lot of the time so we know when we see it as opposed to when it was a newer thing.
- His diction of pointing out the wrongdoings of the people. He talks about the people in a harsh manner and describes them as problems not people. He chooses these words as it sets a mood that this piece is to change the ways of humanity.
- Because of the ridiculous nature of the proposal, he wanted the readers to first see the purpose of this kind of proposal. If readers saw the proposal before they saw the reasoning they may think it is too crazy and would not continue reading and therefore would not see that it is satire.
- The purpose of this kind of strategy is to further invoke the imagination of the readers as to the message Swift wants to convey.
- Swift's use of statistics to back up his appeal for these values and the overall effect of his proposal is a rhetorical strategy that elicited the consciousness of the audience. This further supports his argument as it adds logic to the proposal and makes people think it is a smart idea and they keep reading.
- The purpose of this additional proposal is to create an atmosphere of more anger and ridiculousness to further push the readers to action.
- Swift targets people who make the most of their ill-gotten opportunities to take advantage of people who they got to believe and surrender to them.
- His assumptions addressed his concerns of people taking up most of the power and the poor people becoming poorer and poorer. He assumes that people will read these and will be willing to make those changes and that it is a simple task despite it not being so and it is actually quite a challenge.
- He discusses some solutions so as to help lessen the damage that his proposal would do. The purpose of this is to let the readers imagine how difficult the country has been that it came to the point that this kind of proposal is the only solution.
- He noted at the end that this proposal came from the very ill-fated thoughts of a visionary which makes this proposal all the more satiric. His tone is serious.
- The final paragraph further puts a final closing/clamp on the satiric nature of the proposal.
