Reflections On The Revolution In France And On The Proceedings Of Certain Societies In London Relative To That Event is a political treatise written by Edmund Burke, an Irish statesman and philosopher, in 1790. The book is a critique of the French Revolution and its aftermath, as well as a condemnation of the actions of certain societies in London that supported the revolution. Burke argues that the revolution was a violent and misguided attempt to overthrow a legitimate government and replace it with an abstract and utopian ideology. He also criticizes the Enlightenment thinkers who he believes are responsible for creating the ideas that led to the revolution. The book is considered a classic work of political philosophy and is still widely read and studied today. It is an important text in the history of conservatism and has influenced many conservative thinkers and politicians.THIS 272 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Works Of Edmund Burke V3, by Edmund Burke.
