The Higher education institutes main role is to build enlightened personnel who are able to add value to the country's economy. Also, to spread knowledge and enforce the principles of creativity and critical thinking. Knowledge is the main ingredient for nation's progress and welfare. So higher education institutes should cultivate a culture of knowledge pursuit.
Each college or university has its explicit mission which differs due to social, economic, or even political circumstances and so we can't unify one mission for every institute throughout the world. But we can claim clearly that their missions shall serve common goals like delivery of high-quality education, deliver updated knowledge and use contemporary methodologies of education. The mission is dynamically changed over the few decades and over different places through ou the globe even within the same country, for instance, The mission of University of the People is to offer affordable, quality, online, degree-granting educational programs to any qualified student (Mission & Values.

“The Modest Proposal” is anything but modest. It is actually kind of scary, creepy might just be would be a better way to put it. Johnathan Swift comes off as innocent because he is genuinely sympathetic to the people of Ireland in the beginning of the story. Swift comes off as knowledgeable, confident and caring person when he presents his idea to help resolve the problem occurring in Ireland. Swift uses a scare tactic and then appeals to false authority in order to try and convince the people of Ireland that this could be logically sound proposal.
Famous satirist, Jonathan Swift, in his essay, A Modest Proposal, talks about how to solve Ireland's overpopulation and severe poverty. Swift’s purpose in this essay is to convey how serious Ireland’s problem is and to convince the people of Ireland, both rich and poor, to make a change. Swift adopts a serious tone in order to make his ridiculous proposal seem “modest” when in fact it is ludicrous. This tone of his helps highlight just how severe Ireland's depression is.
Jonathan Swift’s “A Modest Proposal” is considered to be highly satirical. Swift’s proposal of solving the hunger menace through the sale of poor children to wealthy folks is very satirical. He argues that the practice of selling children will solve the poverty problems since the nation will be depopulated. His projector explains the proposal in great depth, portraying Irish children as equivalent to cattle whose carcasses are used to produce ladies gloves and men’s boots. The rationale behind the Irish eating their babies is mocking in the sense that it satirizes people who make absurd claims in the name of solving a problem. As a writer, Swift satirizes himself by making claims of lack of economic gains from his altruistic works.
Heather Robinson March 11, 2014 Mrs. Lafferty AP Lang and Comp A Modest Proposal 1. Swift wants the reader to view his speaker as a general Irish man, not as himself. He wants the reader to describe the persona he adopts as one that everybody has, one that is not uncommon to the time. He also wants the readers to believe that he is a logical, level headed man who is capable of solving and discussing the problems of the day. This creates the beginning of his proposal to be all that more dramatic as we learn that he is absurd.
Sometimes even the best ideas seem outlandish at first glance. This is seen throughout history, with the use of nuclear weapons to end the second World War, or the idea behind a small band of farmers and philosophers rebelling against the greatest military on Earth. In Jonathon Swift's A Modest Proposal, Smith addresses the problems of poverty, hunger, and overpopulation in early 18th century Ireland, and proposes a radical solution to solve the crisis: To turn babies into a profitable delicacy. Of course this is a satirical piece, something Swift was well known for, and the true intention of the piece is to address the grievances caused by the lack of British concern for the well-being of the Irish people, and the apathy to their suffering, and that the British government obviously care so little for the Irish people that the idea of eating children may actually appeal to them. The piece is written in an official tone, to make it appear as if it is a legitimate proposal, even though actually reading into the context reveals its true critical nature.
Originating from Oxford College in England, Jonathan Swift, in his article A Modest Proposal, tells of a solution to end all poverty and hunger in the country of Ireland. Swift's purpose is to present a solution that relieves the parents of burdensome children, adds income, and solves the current issues of the country. He adopts a serious tone in order to convince the audience of Irish folk to think about his "modest proposal".
Jonathan Swift lived during a grave era in Ireland’s history. David Oakleaf’s A Political Biography of Jonathan Swift examines Swift’s pamphleteering and his political leanings. His aim was to relate Swift’s most important writings to the cultural background around when they were produced. According to Oakleaf, Swift’s rhetoric “displayed an extremism that did not always reflect what appears to have been his actual, more conservative political position satire”. Swift called himself an Old Whig. The claim to be an Old Whig, Oakleaf suggests, was a rhetorical device Swift used to present himself as a man of principle, standing above factional politics. In Oakleaf’s account of A Modest Proposal, he believes that Swift’s piece is an expression of “his horror at human oppression” (201).
I am sending my proposal draft. It is not near perfect, but I think, you can get an idea that what I am proposing.
1. After reading the “A Modest Proposal,” it was clear that the author was going to inform his readers of Ireland's horrible situation concerning beggars and thieves. The author also states that those who can fight leave Ireland and become soldiers of Spain, which he believes to be distasteful. The author puts the blame on both his government and its citizens. He believes it shows a nation that is uncaring enough to push its people into becoming mercenaries, and it implies a lack of loyalty from his fellow countryman. The author believes that to solve these problems, women should sell their children to the wealthy upper class, to be eaten as a common food stuff. This, in turn, will employ these women, will keep from overpopulation, and
I will be analyzing the short essay “A Modest Proposal” by Jonathan Swift in this literary analysis. This essay demonstrated tactics or ideas of how to convert the poor kids of ireland into useful members of the community. Some of the ideas in this story are rather odd, but will make the reader realize that Swift means well for the children of Ireland and only wants them to be true contributors to the commonwealth of Ireland.
Data mining is the method of discovering and understanding the models and patterns of large amount of data, while bioinformatics discusses the science of storing, analyzing and making use of basic information from biological data inclusive of sequences, gene expression, and molecules (Zaki, Karypis, & Yang, 2007), the below key points were taken into consideration for this proposal; 1. Establishing an in-depth understanding of how huge data are being analyzed by bioinformatics. 2. Developing a precise method for discovering a motif in biosequences. 3.
A Modest Proposal takes place during a colonized Ireland in the 18th century. The author of this satire Jonathan Swift, informs the readers of the challenges that many women and children faced on a daily basis. They stood on the cold streets of Ireland day and night begging for scraps. Swift believed that it was absolutely preposterous that their English superiors were not decreasing Irish poverty at that time. According to his "modest proposal" Swift felt as though the impecunious Irish were a nuisance to the high-ranking Irish and English elite.
According to Daniel Pink, an author of A Whole New Mind, he states that as a society, we went from the “ Knowledge Age” and are now in a “ Conceptual Age” where our problems no longer have a single answer. Success in the knowledge age was mainly determined by a “SAT” score- a series of tests that require logic and analysis to identify a single correct answer. This does not meet the needs of the conceptual age-which requires creativity, innovation and design skills. Mr. Pink states that today, a successful member of society must be valued for their unique contributions and their ability to think creatively, take initiative and incorporate a global perspective into their decisions. I agree, that education is a form of learning in which knowledge, skills, and habits have changed from one generation to the next. To be successful in todays society one must be “different” or “unique” and incorporate a global perspective in their decisions. One must learn the basics of education and school to advance within society.
Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal" remains one of the most powerful and enduring pieces of satirical literature, precisely because of its bold critique of 18th-century Irish society's indifference and moral decay in the face of poverty. Swift's seemingly absurd proposal to sell the children of the poor as gourmet food for the wealthy is a masterful exercise in satire, serving not only to shock and appall but to force a deep introspection on the part of the reader. This essay aims to dissect Swift's nuanced use of satire, examining how his work goes beyond mere satirical critique to act as a mirror reflecting society's failings. By focusing on specific passages and engaging in a close reading, this analysis will link Swift's satirical elements directly to his broader critique of economic disparity, moral indifference, and the societal complacency that allows such inequities to
Through the doorway sits a room full of people. Though each person is fundamentally different, they have come together for a single purpose: to obtain a higher education. The general purpose for education is to encourage people to further themselves and in so doing, to secure their future. For some, the paycheck at the end of the road is the only motivating factor. For others, the motivating factor is the ability to better themselves and society. The first group, the paycheck group, is not interested in improving beyond themselves. The second group has the desire to use their knowledge to advance themselves and their communities, both at home and globally. The true aim of higher education should be to encourage and create a better, more just, more equal society that works to elevate communities and oppressed peoples through the process of systematic liberation.
