Edmund Burke
Biography
    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).

REFLECTIONS ON THE REVOLUTION IN FRANCE
by Edmund Burke REFLECTIONS
ON
THE REVOLUTION IN FRANCE IN A LETTER
INTENDED TO HAVE BEEN SENT
TO A GENTLEMAN IN PARIS
IT MAY NOT BE UNNECESSARY to inform the reader that the following Reflections had their origin in a correspondence between the Author and a very young gentleman at Paris, who did him the honor of desiring his opinion upon the important transactions which then, and ever since, have so much occupied the attention of all men. An answer was written some time in the month of October 1789, but it was kept back upon prudential considerations. That letter is alluded to in the beginning of the following sheets. It has been since forwarded to the person to whom it was addressed. The reasons for the delay in sending it were assigned in a short letter to the same gentleman. This produced on his part a new and pressing application for the Author's sentiments. The Author began a second and more full discussion on the subject. This he had some thoughts of publishing early in the last spring; but, the matter gaining upon him, he found that what he had undertaken not only far exceeded the measure of a letter, but that its importance required rather a more detailed consideration than at that time he had any leisure to bestow upon it. However, having thrown down his first thoughts in the form of a letter, and, indeed, when he sat down to write, having intended it for a private letter, he found it difficult to change the form of address when his sentiments had grown into a greater extent and had received another direction. A different plan, he is sensible, might be more favorable to a commodious division and distribution of his matter. DEAR SIR

Edmund Burke
Speech on conciliation with America, March 22, 1775
Quote Edmund Burke To restore order and repose to an empire so great and so distracted as ours is, merely in the attempt, an undertaking that would ennoble the flights of the highest genius, and obtain pardon for the efforts of the meanest understanding. Struggling a good while with these thoughts, by degrees I felt myself more firm. I derived, at length, some confidence from what in other circumstances usually produces timidity. I grew less anxious, even from the idea of my own insignificance. For, judging of what you are by what you ought to be, I persuaded myself that you would not reject a reasonable proposition because it had nothing but its reason to recommend it. The proposition is peace. Not peace through the medium of war; not peace to be hunted through the labyrinth of intricate and endless negotiations; not peace to arise out of universal discord, fomented from principle, in all parts of the empire; not peace to depend on the juridical determination of perplexing questions, or the precise marking the shadowy boundaries of a complex government. It is simple peace, sought in its natural course and in its ordinary haunts. Is it not the same virtue which does every thing for us here in England? Do you imagine, then, that-it is the Land-Tax Act which raises your revenue? that it is the annual vote in the Committee of Supply, which gives you your army? or that it is the Mutiny Bill which inspires it with bravery and discipline? No! surely, no! It is the love of the people; it is their attachment to their government, from the sense of the deep stake they have in such a glorious institution, which gives you your army and your navy, and infuses into both that liberal obedience without which your army would be a base rabble and your navy nothing but rotten timber.

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.

Liberty Fund now publishes them again, with a fourth volume of additional writings by Burke. The original set has been praised by Clara I. Gandy and Peter J. Stanlis as "an outstanding critical anthology of Burke's essential works on the American and French revolutions"; and they went on to say: "The scholarship and criticism is perhaps the best on Burke during the last quarter of the nineteenth century." 1.F.1 E.

36. The Significance Of The French Revolution
Short essay which quotes extensively from edmund burke.
http://www.ourcivilisation.com/french.htm
A Study Of Our Decline by Philip Atkinson The French Revolution; The Start Of The Decline Of Western Civilization Arnold Toynbee in his " A Study Of History "saw the French Revolution as the point in our civilization when it stopped growing and started breaking down. By comparing numerous civilizations Toynbee was able to identify the eruption of a class war as the common preliminary of social disintegration, and he explained the explosion of civil violence as a result of the tyranny of the ruling class: "the dominant minority is a perversion of the creative minority whose role of leadership it has inherited, and it embarks on a policy of social repression in order to impose by force the authority which it is no longer accorded in virtue of merit; the internal proletariat comprises that majority within a society which has formerly given its voluntary allegiance to a creative leadership, but which is now increasingly alienated from its own society by the coercive despotism of its corrupted masters;" While the rhetoric of the French revolutionaries may support Toynbee's view about their king, an English contemporary denied this was the truth.

Influence
Burke left, in his many and diverse writings, a monumental construction of British political thought that had far-reaching influence in England, America, and France for many years. He held unrestricted rationalism in human affairs to be destructive. He affirmed the utility of habit and prejudice and the importance of continuity in political experience. The son of a Protestant father and a Roman Catholic mother and himself a Protestant, he never ceased to criticize the English administration in Ireland and the galling discrimination against Catholics.

39. Retaliation
Satirical mock obituaries on some of the leading wits of the later 18th Century, including Sir Joshua Reynolds, edmund burke and David Garrick.
http://www.oliver-goldsmith.co.uk
Retaliation
The St James' Coffee House on the corner of St James' Street in London was a meeting place for leading figures in the arts world throughout the 18th Century so unsurprisingly Oliver Goldsmith regularly met with the most distinguished Wits of the day to eat, drink and, more importantly, score intellectual points from each other. Discussions regularly became quite heated; indeed 'Wit sparkled sometimes at the expense of good nature'. On one particularly raucous occasion Goldsmith, who was reputed to consider himself superior at every branch of art from poetry to hornpipe dancing was challenged to respond to epitaphs that the others would write for him; David Garrick took only seconds to compose his masterpiece, and recited;
Here lies Nolly Goldsmith, for shortness called Noll,
Who wrote like an angel, but talked like poor Poll!
There was an immediate eruption of laughter, more epithets were created (sadly they have not survived) and Goldsmith was invited to retaliate. Not amused, he sat quietly for a while but rather than rush into his task he took several weeks over his answer which he published in fragments and was in fact still working on it right up to his death. The final surviving verse was spotted by a friend on his desk a few days before he died; when the friend asked if he could keep it Goldsmith replied "In truth you may, my Boy, for it will be of no use to me where I am going."

Edmund Burke All Burke's biographers, from James Prior in 1826 to Stanley Alyling in 1988, state that Edmund Burke was born in Dublin and that his father, an attorney, Richard Burke, was a Protestant and his mother, born Mary Nagle, a Catholic. The date of birth is now believed to have been New Year's Day, 1729. It is not certain that he was born in the Blackwater Valley. The fact that his sister's baptism is recorded in Castletownroche has raised Co. Cork suspicions. At the age of six, he was sent by his parents to live with his maternal uncle, Patrick Nagle, in Ballyduff. It is said that he was sent there as a child for the sake of his health and indeed he was a sickly child and the city of Dublin in the eighteenth century was an unhealthy place. He spent the next five years in Ballyduff. During this time he attended the local hedge-school. Here he was taught by the schoolmaster, Mr. O'Halloran. This school was under the walls of the ruined castle of Monanimy. Burke was a cousin and contemporary of Nano Nagle, the foundress of the Presentation Order of Nuns. At the age of 12, in 1741, Burke went to boarding school in Ballintore, Co. Kildare. In April 1744 Burke sat successfully for entrance to Trinity College, Dublin. Burke's University career was distinguished. He became a scholar of the House in his senior Freshman year in 1746. Between then and taking his degree in January 1748, and for a short time after that, he busied himself to some purpose with the debating club, which he founded, and with a miscellany paper, "The Reformer" which he also founded and largely wrote. There is very little known about Burke's life for the nine years after his graduation in January 1748.
