A propos de cet article

London: J. Dodsley, 1790. Second edition, third impression (per Todd, 146) and "may properly be called a new edition, since it is substantially of a new setting, and the beginning of an enterprise not contemplated upon the inception of the work ." Half leather with marbled boards. Front board partially separated from spine, back board detached. Protected with Mylar cover. Some pencil marks on inside front cover. There is a tiny bookseller label in the lower right inside cover: "Tyrell's Bookshop, Adelaide (Australia )." Small triangle chip to bottom of page 99 that does not interfere with the text. Good cover & Good content. "Reflections on the Revolution" is Edmund Burke's famous attack on the French Revolution, and shaped contemporary understanding of the principles of political equality and majority rule. In response to Burke, Thomas Paine published "The Rights of Man" the following year.
