Overview
Common Sense was a pamphlet written by Thomas Paine in 1775-1776 advocating independence from Great Britain to people in the Thirteen Colonies. Writing in clear and persuasive prose, Paine marshaled moral and political arguments to encourage common people in the Colonies to fight for egalitarian government. It was published anonymously on January 10, 1776, at the beginning of the American Revolution, and became an immediate sensation."Common Sense" is a pamphlet on the topic of American independence, originally written by Thomas Paine in 1775. The pamphlet covers the topics of the illogical and sinful nature of allowing a monarchy to rule, the necessary nature of government, the need for America to rebel against the chains of British tyranny and the need for religion and politics to stay separate from each other. Paine makes an impassioned and well thought out argument for American independence that had never been given this level of consideration in a text. Paine wrote the pamphlet in five sections, including an appendix that was added a year after it's original publishing.
