New Releases by Benjamin Franklin

In this inspiring autobiography, Benjamin Franklin not only recounts a significant portion of his beautiful and successful life but also shares his personal formula for success. Franklin advocated sacrifice, hard work, thrift, frugality, and continuous education as determinants for individual and collective prosperity. Franklin''s basic idea that, no matter who you are, with hard work and thrift, you can achieve prosperity and greatness fully embodies the "American dream." For all those involved in business development or collective projects, reading this ebook is highly recommended. Franklin tells us how he created and encouraged numerous enterprises in his city, Philadelphia, in the then colony of Pennsylvania, and in his country. Just to name a few of the enterprises initiated by him: the first library, the first book club, the first militia, the first hospital in Philadelphia, and often in the United States. Franklin was the epitome of an honest, upright, and competent entrepreneur in both public administration and in the private management of his printing press and newspaper. Benjamin Franklin will forever be a great example of a citizen, entrepreneur, and public figure.

"But on the whole, though I never arrived at the perfection I had been so ambitious of obtaining, but fell far short of it, yet I was, by the endeavour, a better and happier man than I otherwise should have been had I not attempted it; as those who aim at perfect writing by imitating the engraved copies, their hand is mended by the endevour, and is tolerable while it continues fair and legible" ― Benjamin Franklin This book is a first-hand account of the great American leader, Benjamin Franklin. The book offers an enthralling journey of a persona that took over the world through his ideologies. Franklin''s life has by no means been ordinary. This astonishing self-written account will inspire you to spread your wings and utilise your maximum potential to cultivate a better world, a better you.

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is the traditional name for the unfinished record of his own life written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; however, Franklin himself appears to have called the work his Memoirs.

"Franklin gave us the definitive formation of the American Dream" --J. A. Leo Lemay Benjamin Franklin''s Autobiography is both an important historical document and Franklin''s major literary work. It was not only the first autobiography to achieve widespread popularity, but after two hundred years remains one of the most enduringly popular examples of the genre ever written. It provides not only the story of Franklin''s own remarkably influential career, but maps out a strategy for self-made success in the context of emerging American nationhood. The Autobiography is a major source for exploring Franklin''s ideas on wealth and virtue as well as his motivations in pursuing a long life of active civic participation. It is also uniquely useful as the story of a successful working printer in eighteenth-century North America, revealing much about the art and business of the printer''s trade that is not documented with such coherence elsewhere.

벤자민 프랭클린 자서전(Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin)(1791) : 그가 사망(1789)한 이후 출간된 것으로 현재까지도 출판되고 있는 ‘수필문학의 고전’입니다. 벤자민이 자신의 지인들에게 ‘자신의 인생 관리법’을 들려주는 편지 모음집의 형태로, ‘자기관리의 끝판왕’이라 불리는 그의 비법(?!)이 고스란히 담겨 있습니다. 벤자민은 1726년 20세가 되던 해 스스로 13가지 미덕(절제, 침묵, 질서, 진실함, 정의 등)을 정하고, 자신의 다이어리에 매일 표시를 하는 방식으로 스스로를 철저하게 관리하였으며, 그의 노하우를 체계화한 것이 바로 그 유명한 프랭클린 플래너(Franklin Planner)입니다. 국내에서도 신년이면 절찬리에 판매되고 있는 ‘베스트셀러 다이어리’ 중 하나죠! 그러나 그 자신 또한 성욕을 풀기 위해 환락가에 수차례 방문하였으며, 특히 맥주를 비롯한 술을 무척이나 찬양하였습니다. 또한 노예폐지론자로 선회하기는 하였습니다만, 사업가로써 여러 명의 노예를 소유한 노예소유자였습니다. 벤자민 프랭클린이 단점이 없는 완벽주의자는 아닐 것이나, 그 누구보다도 자신의 인생에 성실하게 임한 인물로 미국인의 존경을 받고 있다는 것은 부인할 수 없을 것입니다. 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics)과 함께 어제도, 오늘도, 내일도 멋진 문학여행을! B 13가지 미덕은 다음과 같습니다. "Temperance. Eat not to dullness; drink not to elevation." "Silence. Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself; avoid trifling conversation." "Order. Let all your things have their places; let each part of your business have its time." "Resolution. Resolve to perform what you ought; perform without fail what you resolve." "Frugality. Make no expense but to do good to others or yourself; i.e., waste nothing." "Industry. Lose no time; be always employ''d in something useful; cut off all unnecessary actions." "Sincerity. Use no hurtful deceit; think innocently and justly, and, if you speak, speak accordingly." "Justice. Wrong none by doing injuries, or omitting the benefits that are your duty." "Moderation. Avoid extremes; forbear resenting injuries so much as you think they deserve." "Cleanliness. Tolerate no uncleanliness in body, clothes, or habitation." "Tranquility. Be not disturbed at trifles, or at accidents common or unavoidable." "Chastity. Rarely use venery but for health or offspring, never to dullness, weakness, or the injury of your own or another''s peace or reputation." "Humility. Imitate Jesus and Socrates." 과학자(scientist)이자 발명가(inventor) : 벤자민 프랭클린이 발명가?! 놀랍게도 그는 계몽 사상가이자, 과학자(scientist) 겸 발명가(inventor)로써 다양한 분야에 걸쳐 직접 실험하고, 이를 바탕으로 새로운 발명품을 제작한 발명가입니다. 그의 발명품으로 프랭클린 스토브(franklin stove), 피뢰침(lightning rod), 이중초점 렌즈(bifocal eyeglasses), 글라스 하모니카(glass harmonica), 프랭클린의 종(Franklin bells) 등을 꼽을 수 있습니다. 그가 발명한 이중초점 렌즈(bifocal eyeglasses)는 그가 지인에게 보낸 편지의 상세한 기록 덕분에 밝혀진 것으로 벤자민은 생전에 자신의 발명품을 출원해 수익을 창출하는데 큰 관심이 없었습니다. 이 때문에 벤자민의 발명가로써의 면모는 ‘정치인이자 외교관’에 비해 상대적으로 널리 알려지지 않았습니다. 그러나 그가 발명한 피뢰침(lightning rod) 덕분에 벼락으로 인한 피해와 인명 사고가 획기적으로 개선될 수 있었으며, 프랭클린 스토브(franklin stove)는 현재까지도 판매되고 있으니 ‘발명가 벤자민’ 또한 기억할만한 그의 면모일 것입니다. “If all printers were determined not to print anything till they were sure it would offend nobody, there would be very little printed.” “만약 모든 인쇄기가 아무도 불쾌감을 느끼지 않을 때까지 아무것도 인쇄하지 않기로 결정한다면, 인쇄되는 것은 거의 없을 것입니다.” 유이(唯二)한 비대통령 미국 화폐 모델 : 어느 국가든 화폐에 등장하는 인물은 그 나라를 대표하는 위인입니다. 역사가 짧은 미국에서는 대체로 화폐에 대통령을 새겨 넣고 있습니다만, 대통령이 아님에도 불구하고 화폐에 그려진 인물이 두 명 있으니 그 중 하나가 바로 벤자민 프랭클린입니다. 벤자민과 알렉산더 해밀턴(Alexander Hamilton)(1755?~1804)은 각각 100 달러와 10달러에 그려져 있습니다. 알렉산더 해밀턴 또한 벤자민과 동시대에 활약한 정치인이자 법률가로, 미국 건국의 아버지(Founding Fathers of the United States) 중 한 명입니다. 미국 동전은 1센트, 5센트, 10센트, 25센트, 50센트 그리고 1달러로 구성되어 있으며 각각 페니(Penny), 니클(Nickel), 다임(Dime), 쿼터(Quarter), 하프 달러(Half Dollar), 원 달러(One Doller)라 불립니다. 지폐와 마찬가지로 미국을 대표하는 위인이 뒷면에 새겨져 있으며, 벤자민 프랭클린은 50센트 동전, 즉 하프 달러(Half Dollar)의 주인공입니다. “A Penny Saved is a Penny Earned” “한 푼을 아끼는 것은 한 푼을 버는 것.” -목차(Index)- 프롤로그(Prologue). 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics) 101선을 읽어야 하는 7가지 이유 8가지 키워드로 읽는 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin) by 조명화 편집장 01. 미국 건국의 아버지(Founding Fathers of the United States) 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin)(1706~1789) 02. 정치인(politician)이자 외교관(diplomat)(1764~1788) 03. 과학자(scientist)이자 발명가(inventor) 04. 벤자민 프랭클린 자서전(Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin)(1791) 05. 유이(唯二)한 비대통령 미국 화폐 모델 06. 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin)을 만나는 15곳 07. 오디오북(Audio Books)으로 듣는 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin) 08. 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin) 어록(Quotes)(30) 벤자민 프랭클린 자서전(Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin)(1791) Introduction I.

Although it had a tortuous publication history after Franklin''s death, this work has become one of the most famous and influential examples of an autobiography ever written.

Meet Benjamin Franklin as you’ve never met him before . . . This hilarious collection includes the Founding Father’s satirical writings on farting, adultery, and other irreverent subjects you won’t find in your history books. A mention of flatulence might conjure up images of bratty high school boys or lowbrow comics. But one of the most eloquent—and least expected—commentators on the subject is Benjamin Franklin. The writings in Fart Proudly reveal the rogue who lived peaceably within the philosopher and statesman. Included are “The Letter to a Royal Academy”; “On Choosing a Mistress”; “Rules on Making Oneself Disagreeable”; and other jibes. Franklin’s irrepressible wit found an outlet in perpetrating hoaxes, attacking marriage and other sacred cows, and skewering the English Parliament. Reminding us of the humorous, irreverent side of this American icon, these essays endure as both hilarious satire and a timely reminder of the importance of a free press.

Benjamin Franklin was born in Milk Street, Boston, on January 6, 1706. His father, Josiah Franklin, was a tallow chandler who married twice, and of his seventeen children Benjamin was the youngest son. His schooling ended at ten, and at twelve he was bound apprentice to his brother James, a printer, who published the "New England Courant." To this journal he became a contributor, and later was for a time its nominal editor. But the brothers quarreled, and Benjamin ran away, going first to New York, and thence to Philadelphia, where he arrived in October, 1723. He soon obtained work as a printer, but after a few months he was induced by Governor Keith to go to London, where, finding Keith''s promises empty, he again worked as a compositor till he was brought back to Philadelphia by a merchant named Denman, who gave him a position in his business. On Denman''s death he returned to his former trade, and shortly set up a printing house of his own from which he published "The Pennsylvania Gazette," to which he contributed many essays, and which he made a medium for agitating a variety of local reforms. In 1732 he began to issue his famous "Poor Richard''s Almanac" for the enrichment of which he borrowed or composed those pithy utterances of worldly wisdom which are the basis of a large part of his popular reputation. In 1758, the year in which he ceased writing for the Almanac, he printed in it "Father Abraham''s Sermon," now regarded as the most famous piece of literature produced in Colonial America.

Benjamin Franklin (January 17, 1706 [January 6, 1705] - April 17, 1790) was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. A renowned polymath, Franklin was a leading author, printer, political theorist, politician, freemason, postmaster, scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman, and diplomat. As a scientist, he was a major figure in the American Enlightenment and the history of physics for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity. As an inventor, he is known for the lightning rod, bifocals, and the Franklin stove, among other inventions. He facilitated many civic organizations, including Philadelphia''s fire department and a university

Famous as a scientist, statesman, philosopher, businessman, and civic leader, Benjamin Franklin was also one of the most powerful and controversial American writers of his time. He has been a subject of intense debate ever since: to Matthew Arnold, he exemplified "victorious good sense"; to D. H. Lawrence, he was "the first dummy American." Franklin''s classic Autobiography, one of the great foundational works of American literature, is his last word on his most remarkable literary invention-his own invented persona, the original incarnation of the American success story.

Poor Richard''s Almanack is one of Benjamin Franklin''s most charming creations. He delighted in cloaking his writing behind a variety of literary personas, and Richard Saunders remains one of his most beloved. Some critics have complained that Poor Richard reveals the shallow materialism at the heart of Franklin''s homespun philosophy and, by extension, at the heart of America itself. Even so, Almanack holds a central place in understanding Franklin and his evolution from humble tradesman to founding father as well as providing a window into colonial America. Franklin''s sharp wit still retains its ability to surprise and delight readers today.

From "Poor Richard''s Almanac" to letters to Jefferson and Adams, the words of the America''s favorite Founding Father are edited and annotated in this delightful new reader.

The Ingenious Dr. Franklin, an outstanding collection of Benjamin Franklin''s scientific correspondence, has long been unavailable yet deserves a place beside his Autobiography as essential reading for everyone interested in history, wit, and invention. Portioned into three sections, "Practical Schemes and Suggestions," "Diverse Experiments and Observations," and "Scientific Deductions and Conjectures," these letters discuss an extraordinary range of topics, including the art of procuring pleasant dreams, choosing eye glasses, the first human flight, the character of clouds, the behavior of oil and water, smallpox and cancer, the cause of colds, charting the Gulf Stream, and prehistoric animals of the Ohio. Culled from ponderous volumes of collected works or private collections, these engaging and unabridged letters were assembled to allow readers to discover for themselves Benjamin Franklin''s vigorous personality, his humanity, and his penetrating intelligence.

Too often dismissed as the least philosophic of the Founding Fathers, Benjamin Franklin had a deep and lasting impact on the shape of American political thought. In this substantial collection of Franklin''s letters, essays, and lesser-known papers, Ralph Ketcham traces the development of Franklin''s practical-and distinctly American-political thought from his earliest Silence Dogood essays to his final writings on the Constitution and The Evils of the Slave Trade.
