http://www.victorianweb.org/philosophy/sublime/burke.html

Extractions: Victorian Web Home Religion Philosophy The Sublime dmund Burke, whose Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful was published in 1757, believed, however, that "terror is in all cases whatsoever . . . the ruling principle of the sublime" and, in keeping with his conception of a violently emotional sublime, his idea of astonishment, the effect which almost all theorists mentioned, was more violent than that of his predecessors: "The passion caused by the great and sublime in nature . . . is Astonishment; and astonishment is that state of the soul, in which all its motions are suspended, with some degree of horror. In this case the mind is so entirely filled with its object, that it cannot entertain any other." [Burke, On the Sublime , ed. J. T. Bolton. 58] Turner was probably the first to embody these views in painting. [Based upon Landow, The Aesthetic and Crirtical Theories of John Ruskin (Princeton UP, 1971).] Last modified 1988

Extractions: Organization ... Dutch version The conservative Edmund Burke Stichting ("Foundation"), founded in December of 2000, aims to conserve the virtuous elements of Dutch society, and to restore those virtuous elements that have been lost. The foundation realizes its mission by focusing on: Publications (books, articles and reports) and media appearances to carry the central ideas of conservative thought to as wide an audience as possible and propagate these ideas. You can support this mission and our programs by becoming a donor of the Edmund Burke Foundation. We are committed and dedicated to a free and decent society of strong citizens, a strong civil society and a small but effective government. This group of people has found refuge at the Edmund Burke Foundation, the platform for the formation of conservative thought in The Netherlands. The Burke Foundation is free and independentfrom both the government and political parties. The Edmund Burke Foundation does not exist to transform interests into power; the Foundation believes in the power of ideas and in the importance of a healthy cultural-societal debate to future political decisions. Ideas-both good and bad ideas-have consequences.

http://www.lewrockwell.com/rothbard/rothbard11.html

Extractions: by Murray N. Rothbard Published as "A Note on Burkes Vindication of Natural Society " in the Journal of the History of Ideas , 19, 1 (January 1958), pp. 114-118. In 1756 Edmund Burke published his first work: Vindication of Natural Society . Curiously enough it has been almost completely ignored in the current Burke revival. This work contrasts sharply with Burkes other writings, for it is hardly in keeping with the current image of the Father of the New Conservatism. A less conservative work could hardly be imagined; in fact, Burkes Vindication was perhaps the first modern expression of rationalistic and individualistic anarchism. An Embarrassing Work for Conservatives It is well known that Burke spent the rest of his career battling for views diametrically opposite to those of his Vindication . His own belated explanation was that the Vindication was a satire on the views of rationalist Deists like Lord Bolingbroke, demonstrating that a devotion to reason and an attack on revealed religion can logically eventuate in a subversive attack on the principle of government itself. Burkes host of biographers and followers have tended to adopt his explanation uncritically. Yet they hurry on and rarely mention his

The societies are dedicated to the study, interpretation, and application of the life and work of Edmund Burke. It is their guiding principle that the substance of Burke's political thought should remain the subject of vigorous discussion and debate, and that an interest in his thought and in its significance historically and for us today is sufficient qualification for association. Through their activities and publications, the societies seek to present the perennial insight and wisdom of Edmund Burke to a new generation as a salutary guide for action, reform, and renewal.

Edmund Burke: Reflections On The Revolution In France

http://www.constitution.org/eb/rev_fran.htm

Extractions: I T 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.

http://www.econlib.org/LIBRARY/LFBooks/Burke/brkSWv3c0.html

Extractions: Advanced Search This volume includes Burke's four Letters on a Regicide Peace, 3.F.1 As Payne says, there were contemporaries of Burke, "chiefly among the Foxite Whigs, who saw in the 'Reflections' the beginnings of a distorted view of things which in the 'Regicide Peace' letters culminated and amounted to lunacy." It is a criticism that has often been repeated since then: Burke's attack on the Revolution became simply hysterical. But Payne thinks otherwise and holds that in the letters Burke expressed "a far bolder, wider, more accurate view" than that expressed in the Reflections and wrote "as a statesman, a scholar, and a historical critic." The Letters on a Regicide Peace, he concludes, are entitled "to rank even before the 'Reflections,' and to be called the writer's masterpiece." 3.F.2 Nonetheless, Payne maintains that, although Burke was substantially right in his judgment of the French Republic under the Directory, he was wrong in his defense of the ancien régime as it existed not only in France but also throughout Europe. "That political system of Europe," he says, "which Burke loved so much, was rotten to the heart; and it was the destiny of French republicanism to begin the long task of breaking it up, crumbling it to dust, and scattering it to the winds. This is clear as the day to us." Without nostalgia for that political system, however, we may once again note a touch of nineteenth-century optimism in Payne's remark. For one could also point to the difficulty France has had in establishing a stable democratic regime. One might also agree that the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the following years destroyed a system that was rotten to the heart and deserved to perish. But are we willing to assign a historical destiny to Leninism and Stalinism? Our experience with revolutions in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries suggests that we should maintain a certain caution about historical destiny and the ideologies that foster belief in it.

A biography provided by the town of Mallow, Ireland, which claims to be his birthplace.
http://www.mallow.ie/tourism/famous_people/edburke.php

Extractions: 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.

http://www.historyplace.com/speeches/burke.htm

Extractions: Edmund Burke (1729-1797) was born in Dublin, Ireland, and was elected to the British Parliament. He gave many great speeches which have become classics. The French Revolution of 1789 brought a violent end to the French monarchy and resulted in a reign of terror that included the systematic murder of persons of royal ancestry, including the beheading of the Queen of France, Marie Antoinette, in October, 1793. Burke became an outspoken critic of the excesses of the French Revolution and in this brief speech laments the death of the Queen and the passing of an era. It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then the dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like the morning star full of life and splendor and joy. 0h, what a revolution! and what a heart must I have, to contemplate without emotion that elevation and that fall! Little did I dream, when she added titles of veneration to those of enthusiastic, distant, respectful love, that she should ever be obliged to carry the sharp antidote against disgrace concealed in that bosom; little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fallen upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor, and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look that threatened her with insult.
