Download or read book Common Sense Hourglass Edition written by Thomas Paine and published by Curly Design Company, LLC. This book was released on 2021-04-17 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an abridged and annotated edition of Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" with definitions, diagrams and historical context, plus an annotated and formatted copy of The Declaration of Independence. Enjoy and easily follow Thomas Paine's most influential and inspiring words and references from nearly 250 years ago, prepared in an easy-to-read format by Hourglass Editions. How is it different than the original 1776 text? We condensed the original text to nearly half the length by including the key selections and points of the original text, while leaving out repeated points, portions of run-on sentences, and condensing lengthy examples. We include definitions of uncommon words and phrases, plus explanations of people, places or events referenced by Thomas Paine. We make a nearly-250-year old booklet quick to read and easy to inspire the modern student and reader without removing the original author's, tone, words or message. This includes Thomas Paine's appendix response to religious pacifists and King George III's speech to Parliament. Take yourself back to 1775 - Loyalists want to make amends and return to the status quo. Patriots want independence and to start something new. But the problematic group is the remaining majority... They are uncommitted and indecisive on what stance to take. We were not a united nation. But then on January 10, 1776, a pamphlet is published anonymously in Philadelphia. It reads like a sermon to Christians, and an economic and government plan to the colonists, and a rallying call to independence and revolution for the entire continent. It blasts the concept of monarchy and Kings. It exposes the false hopes of reconciliation with England. And it openly lays out the reasons and strength for a revolution. It's a moral decision just as much as an economic or political one. Its "Common Sense." And it spreads like wildfire.

Download or read book Common Sense Anew written by Robert Shendock and published by Llumina Press. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year 1776, a small pamphlet called Common Sense was published; it united a divided colonial American society and created a clear sense of purpose. Common Sense pointed out the problems with government and offered hope for something better. It noted the importance of immediate action and spelled out the consequences of hesitation. Through a unique perspective, Common Sense Anew takes a hard look at to-day's problems, not only in government, but in our society as well. The times have changed and so has the scope of the problems. Like our ancestors, we are in a position to create something far better than the present. We must consider, as they did, the importance of taking immediate action. Will things improve in the future and present a better time, or will they worsen and bring serious conse-quences? Common Sense Anew offers keen insight into these questions, which must not only be answered, but must be answered correctly. Along with incisive analysis of today's issues, Common Sense Anew captures the spirit of the past by including the full texts of documents upon which our nation was founded, Common Sense by Thomas Paine, the US Declaration of Independ-ence, and the US Constitution. Linking past and present, Common Sense Anew also shines a light on the future: for we must consider the future; it is, after all, where our children will live. About the Author Born in southern New Jersey in 1962, Robert Shendock was raised in a blue-collar, middle-class family. At age seventeen, he joined the US Navy, where he enjoyed extensive travel. Since serving his country, Robert has continually worked with the public, visiting thousands of homes from rich to poor, which has helped shape his views on society. In 1996, in a period of less than one year, a chain of tragic events took place that would change his views on life. After a few down years, Robert rose above his adversity with a new perspective and greater interest in government and society. Paying close attention to ongoing events and spending countless hours thinking about them, he found himself with great concern for the future of America. Feeling compelled to do something, Robert wrote Common Sense Anew, hoping once again to bring unity and to establish a clear sense of purpose.

Download or read book Common Sense Revival written by Tiffany Twain and published by . This book was released on 2012-10-23 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book revives the spirit of Thomas Paine's bestselling pamphlet, Common Sense, and advocates seeking independence from the tyranny of people and entities that are abusing power in modern times: large corporations and people who push for expanded privileges for the wealthiest 1% of Americans at the expense of all others. An overarching Bill of Rights for Future Generations is proposed in Common Sense Revival that should be used to help guide our national decision-making. The perspectives of Mark Twain are also brought to bear, and extensive analysis is made of the best ways to a more salubrious future. And a Sustainability Index provides an excellent gauge of the status of our efforts to create a thriving and sustainable human civilization. Smart leadership is recommended, and a courageous and sensible rejection of Donald Trump's authority-abusing rule.

Download or read book Common Sense written by Lisa Holderman and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology examines the constructions of intelligence and intellectuality in popular television and the socio-cultural implications of those constructions. It considers the complexity of popular television images, the influences of these images as they both verify and vilify intelligence, and explores a range of representations of intelligence on television by looking at a variety of TV genres and through a variety of theoretical perspectives and methods. Topics range from broad explorations of patterned representations on television to examinations of particular genres, including science-fiction and reality programming, to in-depth analyses of specific programs such as The Simpsons, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Six Feet Under. This book is grounded in the assumption that knowledge and intelligence are currency in the economics of power and that, given that the proliferation of certain images and the relative absence of others in fictional, reality, and fact-based media play an important role in social-order maintenance, a critical examination of how intelligence is demonstrated, portrayed, and evaluated in the public sphere is crucial.

Download or read book Features of Common Sense Geography written by Klaus Geus and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2014 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributions in this volume combine fundamental questions of common sense geography with case studies of ancient geographical texts. The book bridges synchronic cognitive linguistic and cognitive psychological approaches to the ancient texts with a diachronic perspective. The mental modeling of common sense geography is a fruitful theoretical approach, to gain deeper insights in universal and cultural-specific mnemonic representational systems on the one hand, and to enhance our understanding of ancient geography on the other.
