Reviews

Author Information

Edmund Burke (1729-97) was elected as an MP in 1781. He championed the unpopular cause of Catholic emancipation and a great part of his career became dedicated to the problem of India. The French Revolution prompted one of his best-known works Reflections on the Revolution in France. David Womersley is editor of Augustan Critical Writing, which was recently published in Penguin Classics.
