Of the various Enlightenment ideas that Franklin’s Autobiography exemplifies (as these ideas have been covered in the Norton editors’ introduction and in the Week 2 videos), which one idea would you say is most central to the book (or to Franklin’s outlook) as a whole?

Develop your claim in a short essay (minimum 200 words), and support it with reference to three examples from his memoir, at least one of which was not covered in this week’s videos.

Notes:

This assignment requires you to discuss the Autobiography itself, not the editors’ introduction to it or anyone else’s summary of or opinion about it.

When citing examples from the Autobiography, be sure to include the page numbers in the textbook. Not doing so will cost you points.

Failure to cite an Enlightenment idea that was covered this week will cost you many points.

Please watch the video I attached.
and You do not need the page number
