First published in 1790, when the French Revolution was still young, this remains one of the most influential works of Western political thought and rhetoric. Regarded as a founder of modern conservatism, Edmund Burke (1729-97) provoked many responses with this attack on radicalism, including Thomas Paine's Rights of Man.
