The Age of Reason

von Paine, Thomas   (Autor)

An idealist, a radical, and a master rhetorician, Thomas Paine wrote and lived with a keen sense of urgency and excitement. In The Age of Reason, Thomas Paine declares that all religious traditions are ultimately established for the dependence of mankind. He openly criticizes the Bible and many of the fallacies contained within, as well as providing a shrewd analysis of Christianity and how it developed from its pagan ancestry-arguments many critics claim carry weight today. Paine alienated many of his countrymen with his incendiary viewpoints. Forced to leave America for England, Paine eventually returned to the United States in 1802, though he remained all but ostracized. He died in poverty seven years later in 1809. AUTHOR BIO: Thomas Paine (1737-1809) was an Anglo-American political theorist and writer born in Norfolk, England. In 1774, Paine emigrated to America, bearing letters of introduction from Benjamin Franklin. Soon thereafter, he became involved in the clashes between England and the American colonies and published the enormously successful pamphlet Common Sense in 1776, which was widely distributed and contributed to the patriot cause throughout the American Revolution.

Autoreninfo

Thomas Paine was a political philosopher and writer whose pamphlet Common Sense inspired American colonists to seek independence from Britain. A fervent advocate for republicanism, Paine's works, including The American Crisis, rallied public support for the Revolutionary cause. Later, his writings in Rights of Man and The Age of Reason championed human rights and secularism, influencing democratic thought worldwide. Paine's radical ideas made him a key voice in revolutionary movements both in America and Europe.
