Common Sense

About This Novel

Thomas Paine (1737-1809) was born in England and later became an American citizen. He has become a leader in many fields. He was a political activist, a philosopher, and a revolutionary. Especially as a revolutionary, he is included in the ranks of the founding fathers of the United States. He was given the title "revolutionary" because he wrote two pamphlets at the beginning of the American Revolution. Both of these pamphlets played an immeasurable instigating role in the subsequent revolutionary trend. One of them is this book "Common Sense". The greatest effect of this pamphlet was that it spread the idea of ​​"republic", igniting people's enthusiasm for "independence" and joining the army, and their strong desire to fight against the powerful ruler of Britain. And, it's not just inspiration, it's solutions. It pointed out to the people the dangers of British autocracy and the decadence of its judicial system; it also told the people that a free country should be established. Thomas Paine knew that many people fantasized about compromise with the British rulers from the beginning. In his pamphlet, he warned the people that only "independence" was the road to freedom. Thomas Paine's writing style is also very good. He knew how to use vivid words to arouse the potential enthusiasm of the people. The language style he used in this pamphlet also became the writing style commonly used by many politicians later. It can be said that it is precisely because of "Common Sense" that the people who read it have strengthened their determination to take the road of independence. It was precisely because of Thomas Paine that there was a theoretical guarantee for the success of the American Revolution. Therefore, it would not be surprising to call Thomas Paine one of the "Fathers of America."
