Benjamin Franklin and the Invention of America
Oct 17th, 2008 to Oct 18th, 2008
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) has come to personify the spirit of Colonial America: open, direct, confident, persistent, practical, and trustworthy. This two-day program will explore Franklin's contributions and influence as the original thirteen colonies transform themselves into a new kind of society; one capable not only of defeating a much larger and stronger foe, but also of inventing entirely new forms of self-government that have stood the test of time. Presented by Humanities West, a Bay Area non-profit.
