Synopsis
This unique study of the phenomenon in American culture that is Benjamin Franklin examines Franklin’s writings against the milieu of colonial American journalism, presents a detailed literary analysis of Franklin’s writings, and opens up more than merely new understanding of Franklin’s rhetorical art. At every point in Franklin’s literary career, Sappenfield ably demonstrates, there is a sense of greater complexity in the man than has been generally assumed.
