Edmund Burke was an Anglo-Irish
statesman, author, orator,
political theorist, and
philosopher who served for many
years in the British House of
Commons as a member of the Whig
party. He is mainly remembered
for his support of the American
colonies in the dispute with
King George III and Great
Britain that led to the American
Revolution and for his strong
opposition to the French
Revolution. The latter made
Burke one of the leading figures
within the conservative faction
of the Whig party (which he
dubbed the "Old Whigs"), in
opposition to the
pro-French-Revolution "New
Whigs", led by Charles James
Fox. Burke also published a
philosophical work where he
attempted to define emotions and
passions, and how they are
triggered in a person. Burke
worked on aesthetics and founded
the Annual Register, a political
review. He is often regarded by
conservatives as the
philosophical founder of
Anglo-American conservatism.
