Introduction Jonathan Swift is often called the greatest English satirist not alone because of the imaginative splendour of his best known narrative - Gulliver’s Travels (1929) - but because his mind explored the darkest sides of human nature as much as the flaws and vices of those politicians whom he chose to castigate in his writings. Swift wrote to his friend the poet Alexander Pope that his hatred was not for any particular man, profession, sect or religion but for Man as a species. To him, human kind was not the “rational animal” in which the dominant ideology of the 18th century believed but only an animal 'capable of reason'. Hence the stories that he told beings very like ourselves whose capacity for deceit and self-delusion is invariably greater than their capacity for decency and truth. In the Fourth Book of Gulliver’s Travels, Swift sends his famous character to a land where a race of Horses are the “masters” and who rule over a race of “Yahoos” much like apes or chimpanzees but also unmistakeable like ourselves, the humans of the European tradition. Like many of Swift’s stories, this one has a colonial edge since the Yahoos are also very like the natives of the many countries which the Europeans had “discovered” in the recent centuries - all of which they subjected to violence, rapine, and oppression. Yet Swift was himself a member of the Anglo-Irish class which had taken possession of the land of Ireland and banished its former Catholic nobility overseas while reducing its native population to a condition of near-slavery.

In A Modest Proposal (1729) Swift offers a hideous solution to a contemporary problem in suggesting that the children of the poor should be bred up for the dinner-table to be eaten by the rich in “dainty” dishes or else turned into gloves and shoes for their delicate feet. The satire resides in the fact that the imaginary author of the pamphlet delivers his “project” with all the straight-faced earnestness of a real scientist - a practitioner, that is, of science-gone-mad who computes and calculates the numbers to be killed and the profit to be extracted from the trade in young children for various members of society involved in the sale and consumption of that succulent resource. Once or twice in the satire, he lets the mask drop in order to cast aspersions on Irish country people whom he regards as a nation of thieves and beggars, or to accuse young women convicted of abortion and infanticide of acting out of shame rather than necessity and, finally, to suggest that the fine young ladies who can barely go from door to door in the fashionable parts of the city with hiring a “chair” to carry them are suitable fair candidates for his cannibalistic “solution” to the problem of surplus children. The more we look into this text, the more we realise that the attitudes involved are typically those of a colonial country in which the life is hideously cheap. In this respect, Swift gave voice to hidden facts which contemporaries regarded as unsayable: this, in fact, is his ultimate distinction among the English writers.

In many such respects, Jonathan Swift was an Anglo-Irishman first and foremost but he was also a citizen of the modern world and the world that we inhabit today is more like his than that of almost any of his contemporaries in the so-called Age of the Enlightenment.
