A. Hyperbole
B. Understatement
C. Idiom
D. Sarcasm
The rhetorical technique that Swift the narrator is using when he suggests that his proposal is "modest" is D. Sarcasm.
In "A Modest Proposal," Swift's proposal is far from modest. He suggests that the Irish should sell their children to the English as a source of food in order to solve the problem of poverty. By calling it "modest," he uses sarcasm to create irony and highlight the outrageousness of the proposal.
The use of sarcasm helps Swift to criticize the way in which the English government and the Irish elite were neglecting the plight of the Irish poor, and to call for change.
