Sažetak: Tomas Pejn, građanin sveta kako je sebe nazivao, nakon izvojevane slobode i nezavisnosti u Američkim kolonijama, prenosi duh revolucije i u Evropu. Stanje koje po dolasku zatiče čini da njegova teorijska razmišljanja ne miruju, pa ubrzo objavljuje Prava čoveka, jednu od najfinije definisanih filozofija demokratije 18 veka. Poput Zdravog razuma i ovo delo svojom moćnom propagandom podstiče borce za slobodu da krenu u borbu protiv monarhizma i apsolutizma koji je tada vladao Evropom. Rad istražuje revolucionarni karakter ovog dela kao i njegove konsekvence, između kojih se ističu reakcija britanske vlade, koja na kraju osuđuje Pejna za izdajnika. Abstract: Thomas Paine, a citizen of the world, as he called himself, following freedom and independence in the American colonies, he spreads the spirit of revolution in Europe. The condition he finds upon arrival makes his theoretical considerations not at rest, and he soon publishes the Rights of Man, one of the finest-defined philosophies of 18th century democracy. Like Common Sense, this powerful propaganda work encourages freedom fighters to go into battle against monarchism and absolutism, which then ruled Europe. The paper explores the revolutionary character of the work as well as its consequences, among which the British government reaction stands out, which ultimately condemns Paine as a traitor. application/pdf 157261 bytes Janjatović (rođ.
