Common Sense by Thomas Paine

On January 9, 1776, writer Thomas Paine published his pamphlet, "Common Sense," outlining his arguments for American independence. Although it is used very little today. But brochures were the primary medium for spreading ideas in the 16th to 19th centuries.

Originally published anonymously, "Common Sense" supports the independence of the American colonies from England and is considered one of the most influential pamphlets in American history. The gathering of the general population and the political leaders behind the idea of independence, "Common Sense" played a prominent role in transforming the colonial brawl into the American Revolution.

As Paine writes for "Common Sense," most colonists consider themselves grieving Britons. Paine basically changed the age of the colonialist argument with a crown when he wrote the following: "Europe is not England. Is the mother country of America This new world is a haven for religious freedom lovers and persecuted citizens from all parts of Europe. They run away, not from their mother's gentle embrace. But from monster cruelty And it is true for England that the same dictatorship that expelled the first immigrants from their homes was still chasing their children. "

Paine was born in England in 1737 and worked as a corset during his teenage years and later as a sailor and tutor before becoming a famous printmaker in 1774 Paine arrived in Fiji. Philadelphia and soon to support America's independence. Two years later, his 47-page pamphlet sold 500,000 copies, which greatly influenced American opinion.Paine entered the US Army and worked for the Foreign Affairs Committee before returning to Europe in 1787, returning to England. He continued to write pamphlets in support of the revolution. He launched "The Rights of Man" in support of the French Revolution of 1791-92 in response to Edmund Burke's famous "Reflections on the Revolution in France" (1790). He was hugely unpopular with the British government who was still king, so he fled to France, where he was later arrested for making political views. He returned to the United States in 1802 and died in New York in 1809.
