Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal offers a scathing commentary on 18th-century Ireland's poverty. The narrator, with chilling seriousness, proposes a solution to the burden of poor children: selling them as food to the wealthy. This outrageous idea, delivered in a satirical tone, mocks the indifference of England towards Ireland's struggles.
The Innocents Abroad is a humorous travelogue by Mark Twain chronicling his journey through Europe and the Holy Land with a group of American tourists. Twain offers a satirical and often critical perspective on foreign cultures and customs, contrasting them with American values. With his signature wit, he blends insightful observations with hilarious anecdotes, creating a timeless and entertaining exploration of travel and the human condition.
Charles Darwin's seminal work published in 1859, presents the theory of evolution through natural selection. The book outlines how species change over time, with variations in physical and behavioral characteristics allowing organisms better suited to their environment to survive and reproduce, passing on favorable traits to future generations. Darwin cites evidence from his observations, experiments, and research, including on his voyage aboard the HMS Beagle, to argue that all life shares a common ancestor and that the diversity of species arises through this process of gradual evolution, rather than through special creation as widely believed at the time. The book challenged prevailing religious and scientific views, sparking intense debate, but Darwin's theory of natural selection has since become the foundation of modern evolutionary biology.
