Paine: Political Writings Tapa blanda - 1989

Información de la editorial

Thomas Paine was arguably the single most influential political writer in the English-speaking world during the great upheavals of the American and French Revolutions. For presentation in the Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought series Bruce Kuklick brings together all the classic Paine texts - Common Sense, The Rights of Man and The Age of Reason - as well as the first of Paine's papers on The Crisis of 1776. The customary series features - a brief chronology, notes for further reading, and a succinct introduction to the principal themes of each text - are all appended. This selection will appeal to students in a variety of disciplines from political theory to American history and enable further generations to engage at first hand with one of the most gifted and popular expositors of radical ideas ever to generate mass support.
