Thomas Paine is well-known for his incendiary literature, so it’s no surprise that his pamphlet Common Sense; Addressed to the Inhabitants of America, on the Following Interesting Subjectscalls for a total break from England.First released at the onset of the revolution, Common Sense was an instant success. In proportion to population, it’s believed to have had the largest sale and circulation of any book published in American history.

 

The conflict with England is still new, and a majority of people view themselves as Englishmen, not colonists. People are hoping to reconcile with the Crown and be kept under English rule. Paine insists, however, that reconciliation is no longer an option. England has ransacked the colonists’ homes, killed their families, and treated them unjustly.“If you,” writes Thomas Paine, “…can still shake hands with the murderers, then are you unworthy the name of husband, father, friend, or lover, and whatever may be your rank or title in life, you have the heart of a coward, and the spirit of a sycophant.”He further unites listeners not under the title of Englishmen but as European exiles. They will never be treated fairly by Britain - they need tostop looking for foreign rulers and start governing themselves.

 

Thomas Paine convinced the general public thatoverthrowing British rule was not only possible but necessary.Though the pamphlet Common Sense was forgotten, its core messages weren’t:America is home to self-starting refugees who refuse to be subjugated ever again.
