has gloss | eng: The Revolution Controversy, a British debate over the French Revolution, lasted from 1789 through 1795. A pamphlet war began in earnest after the publication of Edmund Burkes Reflections on the Revolution in France (1790), which surprisingly supported the French aristocracy. Because he had supported the American colonists in their rebellion against England, his views sent a shockwave through the country. Many writers responded, defending the revolution in France, among them Thomas Paine, Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin. The themes articulated by those responding to Burke would become a central feature of the radical working-class movement in Britain in the nineteenth century and of Romanticism. Burkes book, despite being priced at an expensive three shillings sold an amazing 30,000 copies in two years. |

has gloss | nor: Revolusjonsdebatten var en britisk offentlig diskusjon om Den franske revolusjon og varte fra 1789 til 1795. Debatten tok form av en pamflettkrig, som for alvor startet med Edmund Burkes Reflections on the Revolution in France (1790) (Tanker om revolusjonen i Frankrike). Burkes pamflett overrasket mange ved å støtte det franske aristokratiet, mens han hadde støttet de amerikanske kolonistene i deres opprør mot det britiske overherredømme. |
