One traditional story we tell is of the annual reappearance of a su!cide at a crossroads near their place of death. If they speak, it is only about going home. You see, long ago people believed a su!cide would go to Heaven only in special circumstances. Otherwise, they went to Hell. Until it was decided, they would wander the earth, ever at a crossroads, seeking a way home. Where they would finally go was decided by two ghoulish figures, one white, one black, playing dice for the su!cide’s soul.

How does the title, "A Modest Proposal," tell the reader that the piece is satirical?
Sphinxa [80]

The correct answer is C. The author’s proposal is actually extreme and violent, not gentle as the title says.

Satire, similar to irony, is achieved when you are trying to mock something or someone, usually by exaggerating and writing the opposite of what is expected. So, the title A Modest Proposal is not modest by any means - Swift wrote in this text that poor people should sell their children to rich people as food in order to keep the economy going. You can clearly see how the title is satirical then.
