In a work by this author, a father’s order to preserve three coats is disregarded by Peter, who eventually evicts his brothers, Jack and Martin, for objecting. A character created by this author rejects human society after he meets a talking race of horses, the Houyhnhnms (“WIN-ims”). An essay by this author, which imagines making “admirable gloves for ladies and summer boots for gentlemen,” calculated that a nation contained one hundred twenty thousand impoverished breeders. In that essay, this author of A Tale of a Tub suggested “greatly lessen[ing] the number of Papists” by cannibalizing Irish babies. For 10 points, name this Anglo-Irish author of A Modest Proposal and Gulliver’s Travels. ■END■
