Fielding and Swift on Social Media (Blog-post #8)
What would Jonathan Swift and Henry Fielding think of social media today? How would they use it? I think these two would definitely use this platform of writing to inform the nation of what's going on around them. they would write about the situations going on in the world and make suggestions to them. I feel like they would really enjoy social media in the sense that they could get news out quickly and efficiently. They would be able to make their point in short sentences and phrases. It would be fun to see the hashtags they create. I think Swift would say something like #IrishThePoor #IrishProblems #JustEatingBabies. I feel as though Fielding would discuss more issues with the rich people compared to the poorer people. He'd propably make blogs over the poor people problems and blame the rich people. Again I just think it would be really very interesting for people today to read social media by these two great writers.
