Named moral father of the Internet by Wired Magazine and quoted by President Barack Obama in his historic first inaugural address Thomas Paine is an American revolutionary figure who continues to intrigue and infuriate. New Directions in Thomas Paine Studies offers an interdisciplinary perspective on Paine's distinctive influence on a number of eighteenth-century discourses from politics and literature to human rights and religion. This volume aims to expand the field of study on one of the most important figures not simply in the American but the global revolutionary period of the late eighteenth-century. Drawing on an international group of scholars who hope to deconstruct the nationalistic boundaries that have hampered Paine studies for decades the essays offer not only new interpretations of Paine's major works but new methodologies that reflect the enduring presence of Paine in American cultural discourse.
