The Life of Thomas Paine: With a History of His Literary, Political and Religious Career in America, France, and England
ISBN: 9781108045353 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Moncure Daniel Conway (1832 1907), the son of a Virginian plantation-owner, became a Unitarian minister, but his anti-slavery views made him controversial. He later became a freethinker, and following the outbreak of the Civil War, which deeply divided his own family, he left the United States for England in 1863. This two-volume biography of Thomas Paine (1737 1809) was published in 1892, and was followed by a four-volume edition of his works, which did much to inspire a reassessment of Paine's importance in the 'age of revolutions'. Conway clearly identified with Paine's radicalism as well...

Published in 1904, three years before his death, Conway's Autobiography is a peaceful and introspective account of a compelling life. Born to a slave-owning Methodist family in Virginia, Conway (1832 1907) turned away from his roots to become a proponent of anti-slavery, free religion, reform and women's suffrage.
