Common Sense, The Age of Reason, and The Rights of Man

De: Thomas Paine

Narrado por: Russell Newton

This Thomas Paine Classic Collection contains three of Thomas Paine's most notable books: Common Sense, The Age of Reason, and The Rights of Man.

Born during the Age of Enlightenment and one of America’s Founding Fathers, Thomas Paine has written incredible works that continue to resonate with people in the modern world. Inside this collection, you’ll find some of Thomas Paine’s most famous and influential works, from his arguments against the Church to the nature of government and revolution.

Inside this audiobook you’ll discover:

Common Sense, a detailed, concise, and intellectual examination of the origin and nature of governments and their function, plus Paine’s comments on the British Constitution.

The Age of Reason, an enlightening book which challenges institutional religion and offers a deep look into the philosophical position of Deism. Attacking corruption in the Church and challenging the Bible’s legitimacy, this book shook the 18th-century religious world.

And The Rights of Man, which contains a powerful argument in defense of political revolution, using the French Revolution as an example. When the government fails to safeguard the rights of its people, Paine argues that revolution is necessary in both an articulate and elegant manner.

From becoming best sellers and shaking the foundations of the elites, to causing controversy and threats of prosecution, Thomas Paine’s classic works are a testament to 18th-century intellectualism.

As it was then, so it is today.

I began listening to learn more about the mind of the men who lived in the age of revolutions in America and France. I was surprised to find the topics addressed are no less poignant today. We live in a day when ideas such as those presented here must rise up and sieze the national imagination.

Over 200 years ago and still such a clear vision

So many forward thinking ideas and narrated so well in this version... very excellent to listen too [with a small except of the ledger of tax amounts in the final chapters]

T Paine

A mix of history,religion and statistics.T Paine was an interesting man living in interesting times.His writing’s are as relevant today as the were when he wrote them.

Outstanding narration!

Though I may have debated Thomas Paine on a couple things back in the day, he was indisputably a man of rarely rivaled intelligence and insight. Long book, but held my interest throughout.

I now have more respect for Thomas Paine

I now have more respect for Thomas Paine more than ever. Not only because he's one of the original founding fathers but, also because he was one of the people of his time that was thinking about the future of America. But not only was he one of those. He was also a statesman a scientist and a revolutionist. As well as a constitutionalist.

Thomas Paine, knew what it meant to be an American. And he stood for America and what it believed in. That is why I called him a constitutionalist because he knew what it meant to be one before the constitution was written. It's sad how young people today don't care about history because if they did they would understand why America is the way it is.

I promise you if you are the type of person who does not like to read history you should give this book a listen because this has some facts. Also any fellow history maps that have grandkids who need to learn my history please discuss this book with them. Therefore, young people need to know where history is and where it has been if they want to fix America.

Please read this book if you feel so inclined or intrigued. Especially if you are about to make any political decisions or decisions about the future of America.

Age of Reason is the jewel in this collection

Overall, not bad. There were certain parts that drug by like long a long-winded school lectures, but overall, not bad. The Age of Reason was great. I love how it debunked so many inaccuracies in the Bible. Anyone capable of critical thinking would be wise to check this book out.

So robotic

The person easing is so hard to listen to and pay attention. Very robotic I am doing my best to stay engaged.
