The Age of Reason; Being an Investigation of True and Fabulous Theology is a work written by English and American political activist Thomas Paine. It follows in the tradition of eighteenth-century British deism, and challenges institutionalized religion and the legitimacy of the Bible. Originally distributed as unbound pamphlets, it was published in three parts in 1794, 1795, and 1807. It was a best-seller in the United States, where it caused a short-lived deistic revival. British audiences, however, fearing increased political radicalism as a result of the French Revolution, received it with more hostility. The Age of Reason presents common deistic arguments; for example, it highlights what Paine saw as corruption of the Christian Church and criticizes its efforts to acquire political power. Paine advocates reason in the place of revelation, leading him to reject miracles and to view the Bible as "an ordinary piece of literature rather than as a divinely inspired text". It promotes natural religion and argues for the existence of a creator-God.

The Genuine Trial of Thomas Paine is a historical book that recounts the trial of Thomas Paine for a libel contained in the second part of his famous work, Rights of Man. The book was published in 1792 and is written by Paine himself. The trial took place in 1792 and was a result of Paine's criticism of the British monarchy and government in his book. Paine was charged with seditious libel, which was a serious crime at the time. The book provides a detailed account of the trial, including the arguments made by both the prosecution and the defense. It also includes Paine's own defense, which he delivered in court. The book provides a fascinating insight into the political and social climate of the time and the challenges faced by those who spoke out against the government. Overall, The Genuine Trial of Thomas Paine is an important historical document that sheds light on one of the most significant trials of the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

El sentido comun, ensayo escrito por Thomas Paine, se publico por primera vez el 10 de enero de 1776, durante la Revolucion americana. Este ensayo ejercio una gran influencia sobre la opinion publica durante la guerra de independencia estadounidense, presentando una argumentacion contra el dominio britanico en un momento en que la cuestion independentista provocaba todavia suspicacias e indecision en gran parte de los colonos. Paine redacto el panfleto en un estilo sencillo para que la gente pudiera entenderlo sin dificultad, renunciando al lenguaje filosofico y al latin, muy utilizados por los escritores de la Ilustracion. Paine estructuro la obra como si se tratara de un sermon apoyandose en la Biblia para convencer al lector. Relaciona la independencia con la generalizada fe protestante y su sustrato disidente para presentarla como una identidad politica americana inconfundible. El historiador Gordon S. Wood describio El sentido comun como "el panfleto mas incendiario y popular que se publico durante la etapa revolucionaria." El ensayo afirma que las colonias norteamericanas no obtenian ninguna compensacion de su metropoli, cuyo unico proposito era explotar sus riquezas, y que cualquier analisis sensato concluiria con la necesidad de obtener la independencia del dominio britanico y establecer un gobierno republicano propio

Common Sense was a pamphlet written by Thomas Paine. It was first published anonymously on January 10, 1776, during the American Revolution. Paine wrote it with editorial feedback from Benjamin Rush, who came up with the title. The document denounced British rule and, through its immense popularity, contributed to stimulating the American Revolution. The second edition was published soon thereafter. A third edition, with an accounting of the worth of the British navy, an expanded appendix, and a response to criticism by the Quakers, was published on February 14, 1776.

The Age of Reason represents the results of years of study and reflection by Thomas Paine on the place of religion in society. Paine wrote: "Of all the tyrannies that affect mankind, tyranny in religion is the worst; every other species of tyranny is limited to the world we live in; but this attempts to stride beyond the grave, and seeks to pursue us into eternity." The cool rationale of Paine's The Age of Reason influenced religious thinking throughout the world; and its pervasieve influence continues to the present day.

A major actor in the American Revolution, the English intellectual Thomas Paine (1737-1809) is best remembered for his pamphlet Common Sense (1776), which advocated American independence from Britain. Although accorded honorary French citizenship in 1792 for his republican Rights of Man, Paine was later imprisoned and narrowly escaped the guillotine. It was around this time that he started to write The Age of Reason, originally published in two parts between 1794 and 1795. In Part 1, Paine outlines his personal religious views and attacks institutional faith as a human invention, while Part 2 analyses the Bible and highlights its contradictions. The work was met with great hostility in Britain and denounced as espousing atheism, while in America it led to a short-lived revival of deism but was also much reviled. This reissue includes both parts and affords valuable insight into radical freethinking during the age of revolutions.

"Common Sense & The American Crisis" presents a collection of Thomas Paine's most influential pamphlets that ignited the flames of the American Revolution. This book brings together Paine's passionate and persuasive arguments that rallied the colonists towards independence. His clear and compelling prose laid out the case for breaking free from British rule and establishing a new nation founded on democratic principles. Essential reading for understanding the ideals that shaped America, Paine's work remains a powerful testament to the power of words in shaping history.
