Die Polemik entstand infolge einer Schrift Sir William Temples über jenes Thema, auf die W. Wotton antwortete, während Dr.

A Modest Proposal is a Juvenalian satirical essay written and published anonymously by Jonathan Swift. Swift suggests that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food for rich gentlemen and ladies.
