America’s First Citizen: Ben Franklin & His Time
The second lecture in our American History Lecture Series
with Jared Day, PhD will be held on Friday, October 4th at
1:00pm. This lecture focuses on one of the most renowned
statesmen and enlightened figures of the colonial era. Ben
Franklin was an international star through much of the eighteenth
century, and, for many Europeans, he represented
what it meant to be an American and what might be possible
in the “new world”. This course will focus on Franklin’s extraordinary
evolution from a powerful advocate for his king
and the British Empire to one of its harshest critics and an
extraordinary voice in support of the America’s revolutionary
cause. Space is limited and preregistration is required for this
program free to members by calling (860)434-4127.
