Who was Edmund Burke?

Answer 1

I only know this because my AP US History class is having a debate & Edmund is my character. Edmund Burke wrote this book about Vindication. & Then he married a doctor's daughter, she was important too, but I don't remember her name. Then later, after the Revolution, he examined the French Revolution & wrote another book, "Reflections on the Revolution in France" That one, was a big hit. He basically developed his ideas from the Vindication book, & completed them to make an awesome book people actually felt like reading.

Sorry if this didn't help... (:

Answer 2

Edmund Burke was a statesman and political theorist who served for many years in the House of Commons of Great Britain as a member of the Whig party. Burke is remembered for a number of things:

• His opposition to the French Revolution
• His support for the American colonists, whom he saw as being badly governed by the English
• His support for the abolition of the international slave trade

Generally, Butke is best known for his defence of those who we not in a position to defend themselves. His entire worldview can be summed up in a quote popularly ascribed to him: "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men should do nothing."
