I need help making a synthesis analysis of Jonathan Swifts "A Modest Proposal". I don't know what to say or write about. I'm really bad at making synthesis. Please help me

Your assignment seems to have two different parts to it.
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/synthesis
Identify and describe thoroughly some parts or pieces of the work. (characters, literary devices, settings, ideas)
Then ...
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/analysis
Writing about how those parts and pieces all work together to produce an effective piece of writing.

In other words, take it apart and study it (synthesis), and then put it back together and explain its effectiveness (analysis).
