The works of Thomas Paine are culturally important and are part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it, helped shape the American nation and left their imprint on democratic thought all over the world.

Napoléon Bonaparte, for one, claimed to have slept with a copy of "Right of Man" under his pillow, recommending that "a statue of gold should be erected to Thomas Paine in every city in the universe."

Thomas Paine (1737- 1809) was an English-American political activist, philosopher, author, political theorist and revolutionary. As the author of two highly influential pamphlets at the start of the American Revolution, he inspired the Patriots in 1776 to declare independence from Britain. His ideas reflected Enlightenment-era rhetoric of transnational human rights.
