Autor

Benjamin Franklin was an American writer, scientist, inventor, statesman, diplomat, printer, and political thinker whose influence spanned multiple fields. Born on January 17, 1706, in Boston to Josiah Franklin and Abiah Folger, he was the fifteenth of seventeen children. Limited formal education did not hinder his intellectual growth, as he became a self-taught polymath, excelling in various disciplines. His early years in printing led to the publication of Poor Richard s Almanack, which promoted practical wisdom. His scientific contributions, particularly in electricity, earned international acclaim, while his inventions, such as the lightning rod and bifocal glasses, reflected his commitment to progress. As a statesman, Franklin played a crucial role in the American Revolution, helping draft the Declaration of Independence and negotiating the Treaty of Paris. His diplomatic efforts in France were instrumental in securing support for the revolutionary cause. A strong advocate for unity and civic responsibility, he contributed to the formation of institutions like the University of Pennsylvania. Franklin s life exemplified curiosity, perseverance, and public service, leaving a lasting legacy in politics, science, and literature. He passed away in Philadelphia on April 17, 1790, at the age of 84.
