内容简介

"Writing has been of Great Use to me in the Course of my Life," Benjamin Franklin said in his famous Autobiography. With characteristically calculated understatement, he attributed his enormous and varied successes to "my having learnt a little to scribble."
This collection of Franklin's works begins with letters sent from London (1757-1775) describing the events and diplomacy preceding the Revolutionary War. The volume also contains political satires, bagatelles, pamphlets, and letters written in Paris (1776-1785), where he represented the revolutionary United States at the court of Louis XVI, as well as his speeches given in the Constitutional Convention and other works written in Philadelphia (1785-1790), including his last published article, a searing satire against slavery.
Also included are the delightfully shrewd prefaces to Poor Richard's Almanack (1733-1758) and their worldly, pungent maxims that have entered our American culture. Finally, the classic Autobiography, Franklin's last word on his greatest literary creation-his own invented personality-is presented here in a new edition, completely faithful to Franklin's manuscript.
A companion volume includes the complete "Silence Dogood" series, "Busy-Body" essays, and a generous selection of his early writings, including letters to the press, satires, and pamphlets.

   当时我只有十二岁。按照合同,我将充当学徒直到我二十一岁时为止,但在最后一年中我将按照合同获得出师职工的工资。在很短的时期内,我熟悉了印刷业,成为我哥哥的得力助手。这时我有机会阅读较好的书籍了。我跟一些书铺的学徒们打交道,这种相识有时使我能够从他们那里借到一本小书,但是我很小心,很快地交还给他们,并且保持书本的整洁。有时候在晚间借到一本书,为了怕被人发现缺书或是怕有人要买这本书,第二天一清早即须归还,因此我常常坐在房间阅读到深夜。
