Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1790 came that "extraordinary outburst of passionate intelligence," Mary Wollstonecraft's reply to Edmund Burke's attack on the principles of the French Revolution entitled a "Vindication of the Rights of Men." In this pamphlet she held up to scorn Burke's defence of monarch and nobility, his merciless sentimentality. "It is one of the most dashing political polemics in the language," Mr. Taylor writes enthusiastically, "and has not had the attention it deserves. . . . For sheer virility and grip of her verbal instruments it is probably the finest of her works. Some of her sentences have the quality of a sword-edge, and they flash with the rapidity of a practised duellist. It was written at a white heat of indignation; yet it is altogether typical of the writer that, in the midst of the work, quite suddenly, she had one of her fits of callousness and morbid temper, and declared she would not go on. With great skill Johnson persuaded her to take it up again; and with equal suddenness her eagerness returned, and the book was finished and published before any one else could answer Burke."

Book excerpt: Irish-British statesman, economist, and philosopher, Edmund Burke wrote this letter when he got stripped of his pension in 1796. He responded by supporting his ideas on government economy and showing how his and other allowances were not conflicting with these ideas. Burke attacked the French Revolution and mentioned how its views endangered the very people after his pension, probably because he was hostile to precisely these ideas. This letter was praised a century and a half after being written as the most significant piece of invective in the English language.

Of the numerous readers, and anfvverers, of Mr. Burkes long expected Reflections on the Revolution in France, the attention of the greater part will be chiefly drawn to thofe pafTages which more immediately relate to the civil confiituticn of that kingdom. Thefe I have not neglected. But, what I have more particularly replied to, is what he has advanced on civil eftablijhments of religion, which makes no fmall figure in his performance, and which appears to be a fubject not generally underflood.

"The people of England must think so when these, f praters affect to carry back the clergy to that pri"mitive evangelic poverty, which in the spirit, "ought always to exist in them (and in us too, hows ever we may like it) but in the thing must be vaf ried, when the relation of that body to the state "is altered, when manners, when modes of lise, 0 when indeed the whole order of human affairs, '-' has undergone a total revolution. We shall be "lieve t "lie ve these reformers to be then honest enthusiasts u not as now we think them, cheats and deceivers, when we fee them throwing their own goods into ."common, and submitting their own persons to the austere discipline of the early church." sacts into systems, if a man have no sacts to combine, no proper knowledge of his subject? In this case his greater ingenuity will only serve to mislead him, and fix him in error. And it is very evident that, whatever has been the compass of your studies, ecclesiastical history has not been within its range; and sacts, notorious facts, such as lie upon the very sace and sursace of it, unfortunately overturn your whole system. This, Sir, is a paragraph of which it is to be hoped you will some time hence be ashamed. You do not give us the alternative of being either knaves orfols. You will not allow us any place in th& more respectable, or rather less contemptible, class of men. None of us who disapprove of establishments, Dr.Price, or myself, can have the honour of being ranked with honest enthusiasts. We are all absolutely, and without a single exception, cheats and deceivers, that is, persons who are saying one thing, and at the same time meaning another. But we are happy in an appeal...
