A scholarly edition of the writings and speeches of Edmund Burke. The edition presents an authoritative text, together with an introduction, commentary notes, and scholarly apparatus.
'The excellent footnotes to the text reference and translate classical quotations, identify status, historical actors and episodes, indicate points taken up by Burke's polemical opponents and assertions by Burke which were clearly incorrect; they generally continue the high standards established for this edition. This factual information is tremendously helpful in dealing with a thinker such as Burke ... a fine edition.'
