About this ebook

Pamfletul Simțul comun (1776) a fost un veritabil best-seller în epocă, succesul de care s-a bucurat reflectându-se în numeroasele republicări. Lucrarea pledează, cu argumente solide, pentru separarea totală a coloniilor americane de Marea Britanie, invocând drepturile naturale ale oamenilor, egalitatea și suveranitatea fiecărei ființe, supunerea doar față de lege și caracterul absurd al instituției monarhiei. Autorul surprinde cu vervă și finețe toate circumstanțele favorabile desprinderii de patria-mamă, îndemnându-și concetățenii să-și decidă singuri soarta.

Thomas Paine

English-born Thomas Paine left behind hearth and home for adventures on the high seas at nineteen. Upon returning to shore, he became a tax officer, and it was this job that inspired him to write The Case of the Officers of Excise in 1772. Paine then immigrated to Philadelphia, and in 1776 he published Common Sense, a defense of American independence from England. After returning to Europe, Paine wrote his famous Rights of Man as a response to criticism of the French Revolution. He was subsequently labeled as an outlaw, leading him to flee to France where he joined the National Convention. However, in 1793 Paine was imprisoned, and during this time he wrote the first part of The Age of Reason, an anti-church text which would go on to be his most famous work. After his release, Paine returned to America where he passed away in 1809.
