Both parts of Paine's famous work in defense of political revolution. The first part was originally printed in 1791 and the second part followed the next year. "Rights of Man 1791 a book by Thomas Paine including 31 articles posits that popular political revolution is permissible when a government does not safeguard the natural rights of its people. Using these points as a base it defends the French Revolution against Edmund Burke's attack in Reflections on the Revolution in France 1790." "Thomas Paine February 9 1737 O.S. January 29 1736 â June 8 1809 was an author pamphleteer radical inventor intellectual revolutionary and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Born in Thetford Norfolk Paine emigrated to the British American colonies in 1774 in time to participate in the American Revolution. His principal contributions were the powerful widely-read pamphlet Common Sense 1776 advocating colonial America's independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain and The American Crisis 1776â1783 a pro-revolutionary pamphlet series. The historian Saul K. Padover in the biography Jefferson: A Great American's Life and Ideas refers to Paine as "a corsetmaker by trade a journalist by profession and a propagandist by inclination." Paine greatly influenced the French Revolution. He wrote the Rights of Man 1791 a guide to Enlightenment ideas. Despite not speaking French he was elected to the French National Convention in 1792. The Girondists regarded him as an ally so the Montagnards especially Robespierre regarded him as an enemy. In December of 1793 he was arrested and imprisoned in Paris then released in 1794. He became notorious because of The Age of Reason 1793â94 his book advocating deism promoting reason and freethinking and arguing against institutionalized religion and Christian doctrines. He also wrote the pamphlet Agrarian Justice 1795 discussing the origins of property and introduced the concept of a guaranteed minimum income. Paine remained in France during the early Napoleonic era but condemned Napoleon's dictatorship calling him "the completest charlatan that ever existed". In 1802 at President Jefferson's invitation he returned to America where he died on June 8 1809. Only six people attended his funeral as he had been ostracized for his criticisms and ridicule of Christianity. Published for D. Jordan, Piccadilly hardcover books

Born of poor parents in Goerlitz Germany as a boy he tended cattle later becoming a shoemaker marrying & fathering 4 children. Boehme at the robust age of 37 in 1612 wrote his first treatise Aurora oder Die Morgenroete in Aufgang. In 1613 an unauthorized copy of the manuscript was copied and circulated by Karl von Ender. Its reception "raised him out of his homely sphere and made him the centre of a local circle of liberal thinkers considerably above him in station and culture." However the local pastor primarius of Gorlitz Gregorius Richter leveled a charge of heresy. The local muncipal council administered an admonishment to no further "meddle in such matters." This charge Boehme publicly followed for 5 years. In 1618 Boehme again started writing expository & polemical treatises. The majority of his works were written though not formally published from 1619 - 1624. A second major work Der Weg zu Christo was published in 1624 and signaled a renewal of clerical hostility. Boehem however was destined to suffer but a short period of this second persecution; he died of an illness on 17 November 1624. Boehme has been said to have a "fertility of ideas" and a "trasncendent greatness of religious insight." Boehme was studied by Sir Isaac Newton and influenced the work Henry More as well as and especially William Law 1686 - 1761. Xl Questions concerning the Soule was translated by the English mystic John Sparrow in collaboration with John Ellstone & financed by Humphrey Blunden. This the first of several works by Boehme that Sparrow & Ellstone were to translate into English between 1644 - 1662. Boehme proved to be highly popular in England where there were regular societies of Behmenists at the time. This work XL Questions went into a second edition in 1648 and a third edition in 1665. 11th EB. A scarce title in the Boehme canon. We find no copies currently offered via the major on-line databases OCLC records but 4 institional cc and the work has only appeared at auction 3 times in the last 25 years the last in 1989.
