Description
Thomas Paine emigrated from England to America in 1774, a strong supporter of the Revolution. In 1791, again in England, he was persecuted for writing Rights of Man. He fled to France, entered revolutionary politics, but died, largely forgotten, in America.
Paine was an unrivaled promoter of the spirit of equity. He championed the rights of the downtrodden and dispossessed, scornig those who claimed their birth justified their right to rule. His Rights of Man remains one of the most powerful political tracts of all time.
(quarta di copertina)
I diritti dell'uomo, composto da Paine in risposta alle critiche mosse alla Rivoluzione francese dallo scrittore e politico Edmund Burke, è considerato un testo chiave per la comprensione della Rivoluzione americana e della Costituzione degli Stati Uniti d'America.
