Le Sens Commun, Adressé aux Habitans de l'Amérique, is the French translation of Thomas Paine's influential pamphlet, "Common Sense." Originally published in 1776, Paine's work powerfully articulated the case for American independence from British rule. This edition, published in 1822, makes Paine's revolutionary ideas accessible to a French-speaking audience, highlighting the universal appeal of his arguments for self-governance and natural rights.
"Common Sense" played a pivotal role in galvanizing public opinion during the American Revolution, presenting a clear and compelling argument for separation based on Enlightenment principles. This French translation offers valuable insight into the international reception of American revolutionary thought and the broader intellectual currents of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It remains a vital historical document for understanding the foundations of American political philosophy and its global impact.
