it; but as matters stood it was a town of unnatural

was a town of machinery and tall chimneys, out of

ran purple with ill-smelling dye. . . .” — Charles

Short Answers
From The Communist Manifesto, Karl Marx 1848:
Owing to the extensive use of machinery and to division of labor, the work of the proletarians
has lost all individual character, and, consequently, all charm for the workman. He becomes
[a limb] of the machine, and it is only the most simple, most monotonous, and most easily
acquired knack, that is required of him. . . .
1. According to Marx (his writing is in the excerpt above), what has caused the workers to become nothing more than a
part of the
manufacturing process?
2.
How was art such as the picture above intended to influence the colonists?
The Enlightenment Writers
To understand political power aright, and derive it from its original, we must consider what
estate all men are naturally in, and that is, a state of perfect freedom to order their actions,
and dispose of their possessions and persons as they think fit, within the bounds of the law
of Nature, without asking leave or depending upon the will of any other man.
—John Locke, The Second Treatise of Civil Government, 1690
No man has received from nature the right to give orders to others. Freedom is a gift from
heaven, and every individual of the same species has the right to enjoy it as soon as he is in
enjoyment of his reason.
—Denis Diderot, Encyclopedia, 1752
In short, it is the greatest absurdity to suppose it in the power of one, or any number of men,
at the entering into society, to renounce their essential natural rights, or the means of
preserving those rights; when the grand end of civil government, from the very nature of its
institution, is for the support, protection, and defence of those very rights; the principal of
which, as is before observed, are Life, Liberty, and Property.
—Samuel Adams, “The Rights of the Colonists,” 1772
