Edmund Burke 撰写并于1789-90年间出版的 Reflections on the Revolution in France,已成为英国保守主义的经典著作,这也正是它在近两百年后依然被广为阅读的原因。John Pocock 编注的 Burke 的 Reflections 是一部二合一的经典:既包含 Burke 的 Reflections 原著,也收录了 Pocock 对 Burke 及十八世纪的深刻反思。——出版方。

我觉得这属于那种谁也不会因为网上某个家伙敲的键盘而改变看法的争论,但如果你还没读过的话,我推荐埃德蒙·伯克的《法国革命论》。伯克是英国辉格党议员,他当年支持美国独立战争,却反对法国大革命。这是一部极有意思的由当时人记录法国大革命初期的著作。你可以在这里阅读:……
I think this is one of those things where neither of us is going to change his opinion based on what some guy wrote on the internet, but if you haven't read it yet, I recommend Edmund Burke's "Reflections on the Revolution in France". Burke was a British Whig MP who supported the American Revolution, but opposed the French. It's an interesting contemporary account of the early days of the French Revolution. You can read it here:…
伯克的《法国革命论》写得太精彩了。我很好奇格雷厄姆会把伯克归进哪个象限?
Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France is a great read. I wonder which quadrant Graham would put Burke in?
……田野里的居民;又或者以为他们的数量当然很多;再或者以为,归根到底他们除了是一群渺小、干瘪、羸弱、跳来跳去,却聒噪又烦人的过客虫豸之外,还能成什么气候呢。埃德蒙·伯克,《法国革命论》(1790年)。https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Grasshoppers#Quotes
…inhabitants of the field; that of course they are many in number; or that, after all, they are other than the little shrivelled, meagre, hopping, though loud and troublesome insects of the hour.

卡尔·波普尔:《开放社会及其敌人》;埃德蒙·伯克:《法国革命论》(早已公版,你可以直接 Google 搜全文)。我并不是想拿海上家园(sea steading)去硬比攻占巴士底狱。我是想指出,你的意识形态与他们的有着许多共通之处。……
Karl Popper: The Open Society and Its Enemies Edmund Burke: Reflections on the Revolution in France (long out of copyright, you can google for the full text) I am not trying to compare sea steading to storming the Bastille. I'm trying to point out that your ideology has a lot in common with theirs.…
……更右倾的托利党)。像大多数辉格党人一样,伯克支持美国革命,却对后来法国革命的过激行径感到骇然。他写就了关于该主题的传世名作《法国革命论》,起初是写给法国贵族夏尔-让-弗朗索瓦·德蓬的一封信,后来扩充成了一本小册子。在《法国革命论》中,伯克提前了三年多——在雅各宾恐怖统治到来之前——就预言了法国……
…more right-wing Tories). Like most Whigs, Burke was a supporter of the American Revolution, but he was horrified by the excesses of its French sequel. He famously wrote his major work on the subject, Reflections on the Revolution in France, as a letter to French aristocrat Charles-Jean-François Depont, and later expanded it into a short book. In the Reflections, Burke predicted—over three years before the Reign of Terror—that the French…
……鲁莽地插手他们根本不懂的事情。他们自欺欺人的良好初衷,绝不是其狂妄自大的借口。真正心怀善意的人,必先对行恶心存敬畏。”——埃德蒙·伯克,《法国革命论》
…rashly meddling with what they do not understand. Their delusive good intention is no sort of excuse for their presumption. They who truly mean well must be fearful of acting ill.” -- Edmund Burke, Reflections on the Revolution in France
