520 _a"Vie de Benjamin Franklin, écrite par lui-même - Tome 2" by Benjamin Franklin is a historical account written in the late 18th century. This volume serves as a continuation of Franklin's autobiography, detailing his thoughts on language, the printing industry, and various social issues of his time. Franklin himself takes center stage as the narrator, sharing insights from his life and examining the political and moral landscapes of early America. The opening of this tome begins with a letter Franklin writes to Noah Webster, discussing the importance of language and the changes he has observed over time, particularly within American English. Franklin reflects on specific terms and trends, lamenting the decline of clarity in language and printing practices. He critiques the recent innovations in English language usage, emphasizing the need for precision and the preservation of linguistic integrity, while also addressing broader themes such as the influence of print on society, the establishment of truth in public discourse, and the balance between freedom of expression and public responsibility.
