Den überwiegenden Teil seines, nach eigener Meinung, »verpfuschten« Lebens verbrachte er in der Psychiatrie und in Pflegeheimen: Edmund Mach, geboren 1929 in Wien – schizophrener Anstaltspatient und außergewöhnlicher Dichter. Von Primar Leo Navratil unter seinen Gugginger Patienten entdeckt, lebte er viele Jahre im legendären »Haus der Künstler« auf dem Anstaltsgelände der Niederösterreichischen Landesnervenklinik neben mittlerweile weltbekannten Art-brut-Künstlern wie Johann Hauser oder August Walla. Und er stand zeitlebens im Schatten seines berühmten Autorenkollegen Ernst Herbeck. Nun ist Edmund Mach aber als Verfasser ungewöhnlicher Texte zu entdecken, die mehr sind als poetische Botschaften aus dem Reich des Wahnsinns: nämlich beachtenswerte, anrührende und überzeugende Literatur. In »Meine abenteuerlichen Schriften« hat der Herausgeber Uwe Schütte, ein Experte für psychopathologisches Schreiben, die besten Gedichte und Prosastücke Machs versammelt, darunter auch eine große Zahl von erstmals publizierten Texten aus dem Nachlass. Ein umfangreicher Bildteil und ein einfühlsames Nachwort runden den Band ab. »Ich lebe bis 2078«, hat Edmund Mach einmal fälschlich prophezeit. Er starb jedoch 1996 in einem New Yorker Hotelzimmer.

Edmund Burke is both the greatest and the most underrated political thinker of the last three hundred years. We could not agree more with this assertion of Jesse Norman. Very few political-statesmen have attainted the enormous repercussion both in politics and in history that Burke had deployed over the last centuries. Nevertheless, Burke remains unfairly unknown for a wider public. And what it is more, the vast majority tend to think of him as a conservative, if not a liberal-conservative. A prior precision has to be made before continuing regarding the term liberal for the sake of accuracy. Burke was a prominent Whig, what in Spanish language we describe as a liberal, in the sense that both Hayek and Milton Friedman uttered, far from the meaning “kidnapped” of the word liberal by the Anglo-Saxon left. The object of this thesis is to investigate the non-solved controversy on Burke`s figure and the liberal answer he provided with to the political crisis of legitimacy of the 18th century. There is an existing shared opinion by the academia that prior to the Reflections on the Revolution of France, his masterpiece, he was an outstanding and prominent Whig. Champion of liberty, justice and good governance, guardian of liberal virtues and the authentic developer of the efficient policy put in place by the Marquis of Rockingham in order to curb the corruption and influence emanating from the court of George the Third and his double cabinet.
