Paine is believed to have inspired the patriots, his intended audience, to become independent from Great Britain in 1776.

Anne Bradstreet (1612 - 1672) was a poet and the first woman in America to write a book of poems. When she began writing, her poems were meant to educate her children about the hardships she went through. Her husband and children were her only audience, but she gradually became popular in her society. She wrote warm, love poems for her husband and children, but also religious poems. In some of her works, we can clearly notice her sarcastic tone towards the society and its norms.
