Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France is one of
the major texts in the western intellectual tradition. This book
describes Burke's political and intellectual world, stressing the
importance of the idea of 'property' in Burke's thought. It then
focuses more closely on Burke's personal and political situation in
the late 1780s to explain how the Reflections came to be written.
The central part of the study discusses the meaning and
interpretation of the work. In the last part of the book the author
surveys the pamphlet controversy which the Reflections generated,
paying particular attention to the most famous of the replies, Tom
Paine's Rights of Man. It also examines the subsequent reputation
of the Reflections from the 1790s to the modern day, noting how
often Burke has fascinated even writers who have disliked his
politics.
