I am finding essential to learn more about the thought of figures such as Burke, in the current time.
We are living in a noisy period that is leading to extremist views. Edmund Burke can remind us of the dangers of taking that road.
Perfectly well read and understandable for a foreigner like me. As a monarchist and a contempter of the revolution, Burker's Reflections has been one of my bedside books for decades, though the length of it and the absence of chapters requires a good deal of attention. I have learnt by heart some passages such as: The age of chivalry... and resort to it frequently as it applies so perfectly to modern politics. I have the London edition of 1790 and a cheap modern edition. Thanks for this excellent documentary.
25:08 Burke's famous speech feels exceedingly pertinent to current day politics. Thank you for bringing it forward. "...not a Congress of ambassadors from different and hostile interests...each must maintain... against other agents and advocates. But, Parliament is a deliberative assembly of one nation with one interest: that of the whole, where not local purposes, not local prejudices ought to guide, but the general good resulting from the general reason of the whole..."
Would love a The People Profiles series of these historical thinkers, like John Stuart Mill and other philosophers mentioned in this video. Thank you 🙏
Honored in the US South. Edmund Burke Academy in Burke County, Georgia!
Thank you for another smooth historical ride🙏 Love your style and narrator. Peacefully presented, engaging and informative content.👏💖👏
I love this channel! Been a member since 2018. Keep up the fantastic historical research! ❤❤😅
Thank you! Will do!
Have you done one on Alexis de Tocqueville ? Pls do.
I'm conservative. I consider Jesus Christ to be a father of conservatism. His principles and way of life inspired me to become a conservative.
It gets rather irritating when people assume conservativism is synonymous with bigotry and oppression 😒 I’m a classical/traditional liberal but I see the value of conservative politics because I actually understand what true conservatism is. I’ve met plenty of socialists who held very unpleasant political views about certain people yet they are not always subject to the same scrutiny. To assume that an individual is an authoritarian or a bigot simply for having some Burkean conservative views is absurd
Just found your channel today & watched King John - Magna Carta…
Although your biography of John lacks the historical accuracy of both Mel Brooks and Disney’s depictions of John in their Robin Hood movies I still found your spin on the historical figure to be enlightening.
I know of Burke's thinking only by way of Levin's *_"The Great Debate;_*_ Burke, Paine, and the birth of right and left"._
thanks very much for this! comprehensive, and entertaining too!

I've read that book!😊
BRILLIANT, as always! Spectacular!
I did enjoy this documentary. At a time when there is a tendancy to pull conservatism towards a hard ideological right he is a historical reminder that this should not happen. Burke made a career of pursuing the progressive policies of his time in an effort to preserve the very best of what he inherited from his forefathers. Most people are neither left,nor right . Most are comfortably in the center. Modern Conservatism would do well to remember this lesson from Burke.
Ask Donald Trump if he has even ever heard of Edmund Burke! 😂
Edmund Burke was an Anglo-Irish statesman and philosopher.
He spent most of his career in Great Britain.
Born in Dublin, Burke served as a member of Parliament (MP) between 1766 and 1794 in the House of Commons of Great Britain with the Whig Party.

@@yaldabaoth2 It's a "summary of the video you just watched" bot. 😂
@@kcnmsepognln Yeah, I've heard of them but this is the first time seeing one.
Bottty bot bot
I love history ...😮 good job👍🏼
Likewise!
And beautiful visuals and illustrations that help a lot, too ! 😊Congratulations!
I have been reading his works. I’m glad you made a video about this.
Are there any monuments to him in America, since he supported Independence?
@@cindymaceda2999 there should be, but I don’t think there are
Very informative.
Beginning sequence so beautiful! As always very interesting, well done documentary.
Edmund Burke was an MP for Bristol. Therefore, a statue should be erected on the empty plinth (formerly Edward Colston) in Bristol centre.
Absolute tosh. Bristolians these days are resoundingly anti-conservative. Very inappropriate choice
In his day , he was a Liberal ; Conservatives were Monarchists.
One of the most inspiring philosophers I have ever read.
Thanks for the fantastic documentary!
Your videos never fail to impress. Keep up the fantastic work!
Thanks For this! Love your content guys ❤❤❤❤
Excellent documentary, but I found the background music distracting.
I think you forgot to mention his 'Harm Principal'.
another masterpiece
Stunning paintings we’ve never seen, that so illustrate the history.
I am of mixed opinion of his views I have sympathy over his Irish position but he seems not want much change in the life of the poor
Are you a socialist?
The poor will always be poor, and there will always be poor. There is no remedy to this.
I wonder what he would have thought about what has happened to the Conservative Party
😅
I’m a conservative and I’m not bothered as that lot are not conservative self deriving clowns 🤡
@@robertstrong6798the modern day Tories are a disgrace. There’s nothing conservative about them. Very unpleasant bunch of people and new Labour aren’t much better
Thanks for this concise outline which seems to balance the man with his effective engagement with history and the history of ideas.
It seems to me all students of history should avoid a diet of speculators and know alls and look for those like Burke , who got grounded in public service work or like Carlyse who are relentless in pursuing the truth and who want us to learn the hard lessons of deep injustices and how humans perpetuate them.
So that is where the term " you are a burke!" Comes from! 😂
It comes from “Berkeley Hunt”, which is rhyming slang for…well, you know 😂
Really enjoyed thank you.
I’d really love to see a documentary about Walt Disney here on the people’s profile.
Ya..I think I'll pass on that one. I don't think you'll like it, if you don't already know. Take it from me, you'll look at Disney differently.
@@msprissmiss okay
He is not forgotten in the U.S.! Or Canada for that matter
Burke wouldn’t see much in common with today’s Democrats. He was less pro-donor and more pro-American.
Pertinent in current turbulent western politics and philosophy .
Excellent!
Well presented
Lavrentiy Beria next plz.
Excellent documentary
Is the music absolutely necessary?!
If you MUST include it,
maybe a respite now and then?
It’s incessantly annoying.
Yay!!! 🥳
You look wonderful with glasses and slightly longer hair.
Make a video about King Herod or Kim Jong Il.
I need to get some geneology done... he may be a distant relative... Excellent video.
Really? That’s fascinating if true!
Patton said to guard against being too conservative
Patton said an awful lot of things. He had a run as a brave general for a few years not as a political mind.
Nägel? Sounds German!
You're right, does sound German. Nagle is an Irish name though, one that made an important contribution to education of poor Catholics in Ireland during Burke's lifetime.
The original schizoposter.
All the woke folk are Dems & if they're not a poster for multiple personalities then I don't know what is..self proclaimed, no doubt..I can tell you one thing, though. They're not Conservative.
Ya, seeing both sides or political arguments sounds horrible. How dare someone see both sides instead of solely his own, no matter the detriment..what a jerk.
@@msprissmiss What? I didn’t say anything about that at all. 😂 I was referencing the fact that ROTRIF is one long, unhinged rant in which he just lays all his thoughts out without formatting or structuring it, lol.
@Longshanks1690 hey that's me 😂
🇺🇸
No just believe in a fair society
Too much emphasis placed on social standing and religion over the many years , just who the hell do these people think they are ? Someone superior ? Pfft !
