About Edmund Burke
He is regarded as a leading conservative thinker of the 18th century. Burke spent most of his career in Great Britain and served as a Member of Parliament from 1766 to 1794 with the Whig Party. His writings shaped public opinion in Britain and France after the French Revolution and he remains an important figure in modern conservative circles.
