Common Sense; The Rights of Man
Thomas Paine's writings were crucial in shaping revolutionary thought during the late 18th century, particularly in America and France. Common Sense, written in 1776, passionately argues for American independence from Britain, making complex ideas accessible to ordinary people and galvanizing support for the Revolutionary War. In The Rights of Man, written in 1791, Paine defended the French Revolution and promoted democratic ideals, challenging the notion of hereditary government and advocating for the rights of individuals.
