FRtR Biographies Edmund Burke A biography of Edmund Burke (1729-1797) Quote British statesman, parliamentary orator and political thinker, played a prominent part in all major political issues for about 30 years after 1765, and remained an important figure in the history of political theory. Burke was Irish, born in Dublin in 1729. His father, a solicitor, was protestant, his mother Roman Catholic. He entered Trinity college, Dublin, in 1744, and came to London in 1750. Burke's A Vindication of Natural Society was published in 1756 and in 1757 A Philosophical Inquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful appeared. Also in 1757, Burke married Jane Nugent, the daughter of an Irish Catholic doctor. His political career started in 1765 when he became the private secretary of one of the Whig leaders in Parliament, the marquess of Rockingham. Burke soon proved to be one of the main characters in the constitutional controversy in Britain under George III, who at the time was trying to establish more actual power for the crown. Although the crown had lost some influence under the first two Georges, one of the major political problems in 18th century Britain was the fact that both the king and Parliament had considerable control over the executive. Burke responded to these affairs in his pamphlet Thoughts on the Cause of the Present Discontents (1770), in which he argued that although George's actions were legal in the sense that they were not against the letter of the constitution, they were all the more against it in spirit. In the pamphlet Burke elaborates on his famous and new justification of a party, defined as :... a body of men united on public principle, which could act as a constitutional link between king and parliament, providing consistency and strenght in administration, or principled criticism in opposition" (...431-32).

Edmund Burke, 1729-1797 Edmund Burke, was born in Dublin, January 12, educated at a Quaker boarding school and at Trinity College, Dublin. In 1750 he entered the Middle Temple, London, but soon abandoned law for literary work. His Vindication of Natural Society , was published in 1756, as was also his Philosophical Inquiry into the Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful . From 1761 to 1783 he was back in Dublin as private secretary to the Marquis of Rockingham, at that time premier, and entered Parliament for the pocket borough of Wendover. His eloquence once gained him a high position in the Whig party. Rockingham's administration lasted only one year. Although Burke held no public office until the downfall of the North ministry in 1782, Burke's public activity never ceased. Lord North's long administration (1770-1782) was marked by the unsuccessful coercion of the American colonies, by corruption, extravagance, and reaction. Against this policy Burke and his Whig friends could only raise a strong protest. The best of Burke's writings and speeches belong to this period, and may be described as a defense of sound constitutional statesmanship against prevailing abuse and misgovernment.

La vita e le opere Il 9 luglio 1797 Burke muore nella sua casa di campagna di Beaconsfield, in Inghilterra. 2. Il pensiero politico-filosofico Lo statista diviene e rimane celebre per quattro "battaglie parlamentari". La prima, a tutela dei diritti costituzionali tradizionali dei coloni britannici in America, si oppone alla tassazione arbitraria, imposta dal governo londinese, e difende l'autentico significato della Costituzione "non scritta" britannica. Con lungimiranza, Burke si accorge della miccia che tale politica va innescando nella polveriera nordamericana e fa di tutto per allontanare lo spettro della perdita delle Colonie. Mai favorevole all'indipendenza che queste dichiarano nel 1776, una volta scoppiato il conflitto armato fra esse e la Corona britannica, egli giudica gli eventi come una "guerra civile" interna all'Impero - non una rivoluzione -, presto sanabile.

EDMUND BURKE BURKE, EDMUND It is too often the case to be a mere accident that men who become eminent for wide compass of understanding and penetrating comprehension, are in their adolescence unsettled and desuItory~ Of this Burke is a signal illustration. He left Trinity in 1748, with no great stock of well-ordered knowledge. He neither derived the benefits nor suffered the drawbacks of systematic intellectual discipline. After taking his degree at Dublin he went in the year 1750 to London to keep terms at the Temple. The ten years that followed were passed in obscure industry. Burke was always extremely reserved about his private affairs. All that we know of Burke exhibits him as inspired by a resolute pride, a certain stateliness and imperious elevation of mind. Such a character, while free from any weak shame about the shabby necessities of early struggles, yet is naturally unwilling to make them prominent in after life. There is nothing dishonourable in such an inclination. I was not swaddled and rocked and dandleci into a legislator, wrote Burke when very near the end of his days: Nitor in adversum is the motto for a man like me. At every step of my progress in life (for in every step I was traversed and opposed), and at every turnpike I met, I was obliged to show my passport. Otherwise no rank, no toleration even, for me.

The Age of George III Edmund Burke (1729-1797) Edmund Burke was born on 1 January 1729 (Old Style; 12 January New Style). His stated birthplace is Dublin although there is a strong tradition in County Cork that Burke was actually born at Ballywater, Shanballymore (Connor Cruise O'Brien, The Great Melody, 1992). Although his mother, Mary Nagle, was a Catholic and his father, Richard - a solicitor - had converted to Anglicanism, Burke was educated from 1741 at Abraham Shackleton's Quaker boarding school in Ballitore, Co. Kildare. Edmund Burke was brought up as an Anglican in order that he would not be limited by the Williamite Penal Laws against Catholics. In 1744 Burke successfully sat the entrance examinations for Trinity College, Dublin. He took his final examinations in 1748 and in 1750 he embarked on his legal training at the Middle Temple in London but appears to have lost interest in the Law as a career. He left England and spent some time wandering around England and France. He then took up a career in writing. His early publications include Vindication of Natural Society Philosophical Inquiry into the Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful In 1757 Burke married Jane Nugent, a Catholic; also it is from this time that his friendships with literary and artistic people such as Samuel Johnson, Oliver Goldsmith, Sir Joshua Reynolds, and David Garrick began. In 1759 Burke became an assistant to William Gerard Hamilton MP. When Hamilton was appointed Chief Secretary for Ireland in April 1761 he asked Burke to accompany him as his private secretary, a job Burke accepted. Consequently, Burke had an officially minor, but significant role in the government of Ireland between 1761 and 1764 when Hamilton was dismissed. The two men quarrelled irrevocably in April 1765 and Hamilton terminated Burke's employment. Despite strong advice to the contrary, the second Marquis of
