Edmund Burke (1729-1797) di Marco Respinti 1. La vita e le opere Il 9 febbraio 1758 Jane Burke dà alla luce il figlio Richard, che morirà nel 1794. Nel medesimo anno, Burke comincia a dirigere l'Annual Register, una corposa rassegna che, dal 1759, si occupa di storia, di politica e di letteratura, prima solo britanniche, poi anche europee continentali, e che egli dirige, anche collaborando, fino al 1765. Fra il 1758 e il 1759 scrive Essay towards an Abridgment of the English History - interrotto a re Giovanni Plantageneto, detto Senzaterra (1167-1216) -, un'opera pubblicata postuma nel 1811. In questo stesso periodo Burke inizia a frequentare Samuel Johnson (1709-1784), l'eminente letterato tory, cioè del "partito del re": nonostante la diversità delle loro opinioni politiche, fra i due intercorreranno profonde stima e amicizia. Burke siede dunque nei banchi dell'opposizione per la maggior parte della propria carriera politica ed è durante questa seconda fase della sua esistenza che lo statista-pensatore pubblica le opere più note, fra cui Thoughts on the Causes of the Present Discontents nel 1770, Speech on the Conciliation with the Colonies nel 1775, Reflections on the Revolution in France nel 1790, Thoughts on the French Affairs e Appeal from the New to the Old Whigs nel 1791, nonché le Letters on a Regicide Peace, concluse nel 1796. Il 9 luglio 1797 Burke muore nella sua casa di campagna di Beaconsfield, in Inghilterra.

On graduating from Trinity College, Dublin, in 1748 he studied law at the Middle Temple in London. Seeking a literary career, he published A Vindication of Natural Society (1756), a satire on rationalist philosophy, and Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful (1757), a treatise on aesthetics. Burke was quickly taken up by Goldsmith, Sheridan, Reynolds and other worthies, and was a founder member of Samuel Johnson's Club. In 1758 he was invited to edit the first Annual Register and continued to do so for almost twenty years. In 1761 Burke became private secretary to the chief secretary in Ireland, W. G. Hamilton. After a breach with Hamilton in 1765, he became private secretary to Lord Rockingham, who briefly headed a Whig administration at Westminster. He entered parliament in 1766 as MP for Wendover and later sat for Bristol - losing that seat for insisting that he was a representative of his constituents and not their delegate - and Malton. Burke had a distinguished parliamentary career, raising the standard of debate and fostering the party system. He took the lead in impeaching Warren Hastings, the former governor-general of India, in 1787. Though he never held a major office of state, his views have influenced politicians for two centuries.

That of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded; and the glory of Europe is extinguished forever. Edmund Burke American colonies, Ireland, France and India Harried, and Burke's great melody against it. W.B. Yeats (The Seven Sages) For two centuries a controversy has raged over Burke's political philosophy, in particular whether the great defender of American, Irish and Indian rights was inconsistent in opposing the French Revolution. The very existence and the stubborn persistence of this controversy seem to demonstrate either a complete misunderstanding or a willful misrepresentation of Burke's basic arguments. One suspects it's a bit of both. The greatness of Burke lies in the fact that he was among the first, and certainly the most eloquent, defenders of democracy to recognize the dangers it entails; that power in the hands of the masses is just as great a threat to liberty as when it lies in the hand of a dictator or king. This point had been amply demonstrated in France, where the revolutionists had quickly abandoned any concern for personal freedom and had moved on to a bloody demand for equalityfreedom's enemy. It is here that we arrive at the key point that divides the modern Left and Right. The Left believes (a la Rousseau) that man is by nature "good" and all men are born with equal abilities, but that environmental factors and corrupt institutions warp individuals, making some evil and keeping others from realizing their full potentials; which if realized would make them equal to other men. The goal of the Left is therefore to remove, by any means necessary, these environmental and institutional impediments and return to an imagined state of nature where all men are good and are equally able; where Man will be governed by pure reason.

The following document is a reading assignment for students participating in World Cultures III (BIC 2334) at Baylor University. Reflections on the Revolution in France Edmund Burke Edmund Burke (1729-1797) is the father of conservative political thought. He supported the American Revolution, but was led by the excesses of the French Revolution to write his Reflections on the French Revolution (1789). This work, in the form of a letter to a student in France, takes the form of an attack on the sentiments expressed in a sermon by Richard Price. Price had claimed that the people have the right to choose their own rulers, to change rulers who engaged in misconduct, and to create a government to their own liking. Burke took issue with all of these alleged rights and argued that it is almost always wrong to question prescriptive, or established, authority. On the forenoon of the 4th of November last, Doctor Richard Price, a non-conforming minister of eminence, preached at the dissenting meeting house of the Old Jewry, to his club or society, a very extraordinary miscellaneous sermon, in which there are some good moral and religious sentiments, andŠmixed up in a sort of porridge of various political opinions and reflections; but the Revolution in France is the grand ingredient in the cauldron. I consider the address transmitted by the Revolution Society to the National AssemblyŠas originating in the principles of the sermon, and as a corollary from them. It was moved by the preacher of that discourse. It was passed by those who came reeking from the effect of the sermon, without any censure or qualification, expressed or implied.

Edmund Burke, 1729-1797 Irish social and political philosopher and statesman. Although reared in the Enlightenment era, Burke was a severe critic of rationalist theories of " natural law " and social contract. Like David Hume , Burke believed that political and social organization evolved organically over history from a variety of political, cultural and social circumstances. In Burke's view, current society is a robust organism that emerged piecemeal and slowly over history. For this reason, Burke never trusted abstract "grand plans" for radical political, economic and/or social reorganization of society. This has led him to be celebrated as the father of Conservatism. However, Burke wasn't exactly an apologist of the current order either. Tyrannical kings and parliaments, no less than tyrannical mobs, were an anathema to Burke. It is for this reason that he defended the American Revolution (since, in his view, they were merely "reclaiming" their traditional rights as freeborn Englishmen) and condemned the French Revolution (which, in his view, was based on a rationalist experiment). Burke was trained as a lawyer at Trinity College, Dublin and thereafter moved to London. In 1759, he became a private secretary to William Hamilton and then, in 1765, to Charles Wentworth, Marquis of Rockingham, the Whig prime minister. Burke was himself elected to the House of Commons in 1765. After the fall of the Whigs in 1766, Burke sat in opposition to the Tories in parliament.
