Challenging cannibalistic consumption : Jonathan Swift and the Irish problem by Wong, Ada Pui Ying

“…Through an investigation of Swift’s works and the effects of enforced English laws in Ireland, I would like to show how Protestant English in Ireland, were from the perspective of England or in relation to the English Parliament, in the same boat as the Irish Catholics.
