Letters To A Member Of The National Assembly (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781168709592)

""Letters to a Member of the National Assembly"" is a collection of letters written by the renowned British statesman and philosopher, Edmund Burke, to a French politician during the French Revolution. In these letters, Burke expresses his opposition to the radical changes taking place in France and warns against the dangers of revolution. He argues that the French Revolution is not a legitimate expression of the people's will, but rather a violent overthrow of established institutions that will lead to chaos and tyranny. Burke also discusses the importance of tradition, religion, and the rule of law in maintaining social order and stability. The book offers a unique insight into Burke's political philosophy and his views on the nature of government, society, and human nature. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of political thought and the French Revolution.THIS 52 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Works Of Edmund Burke V3, by Edmund Burke.
