Answer:

Franklin ganó el título de «El Primer Americano» por su temprana e infatigable campaña por la unidad colonial, inicialmente como autor y portavoz en Londres para varias colonias. Como el primer embajador de los Estados Unidos en Francia, ejemplificó a la naciente nación americana.2​ Franklin fue fundamental en la definición del ethos americano como un matrimonio de los valores prácticos de ahorro, trabajo duro, educación, espíritu comunitario, instituciones autogobernadas y oposición al autoritarismo político y religioso, con los valores científicos y tolerantes de la Ilustración. En palabras del historiador Henry Steele Commager, «En un Franklin se podían fusionar las virtudes del puritanismo sin sus defectos, la iluminación de la Ilustración sin su calor».3​ Para Walter Isaacson, esto hace de Franklin «El más consumado americano de su edad y el más influyente en inventar el tipo de sociedad en la que Estados Unidos se convertiría».4​

Como inventor, es conocido por el pararrayos, las lentes bifocales, la armónica de cristal y la estufa Franklin, entre otros inventos.6​ Fundó muchas organizaciones cívicas, incluyendo la Compañía de la Biblioteca de Filadelfia, el primer departamento de bomberos de Filadelfia7​ y fue pionero y el primer presidente de la Academia y Colegio de Filadelfia, que abrió sus puertas en 1751 y más tarde se convirtió en la Universidad de Pensilvania.8​

Organizó y fue el primer secretario de la Sociedad Filosófica Americana y fue elegido presidente en 1769. Franklin se convirtió en un héroe nacional en América como agente de varias colonias cuando encabezó un esfuerzo en Londres para que el Parlamento de Gran Bretaña derogara la impopular ley del timbre. Durante la Revolución, se convirtió en el primer general de correos de los Estados Unidos. Él era activo en asuntos de la comunidad, de política colonial y del estado, así como asuntos nacionales e internacionales. De 1785 a 1788, sirvió como gobernador de Pensilvania. Al principio poseía y trataba con esclavos, pero a partir de la década de 1750, se opuso a la esclavitud desde una perspectiva económica y se convirtió en uno de los abolicionistas más destacados.

Goryan [66]

Answer:
