Synopsis
Excerpt from Bacon
In the Parliament which met in November, 1584, when the nation was in a white heat on the question of the main tenance of the Protestant religion and the Protestant succes sion, Bacon was returned to the House of Commons for the borough of Melcombe in Dorsetshire, having been also returned by Burghley for Gatton. In the next Parliament, which met in October, 1586, just after sentence had been passed by the Commissioners on Mary Queen of Scots, he sat for Taunton, and is mentioned by d'ewes as one of the speakers, on the 4th of November, on the Great Cause. Except the fact, however, that he spoke on the popular side, we know nothing of this speech. In the same year (1586),he became a bencher of Gray's Inn, and thus acquired the right to practise before the Courts at Westminster. At this time, therefore, when he was hardly twenty-six years of age, we may regard him as fairly started on his career, both as a lawyer and a politician.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This philosophical text provides a critical examination of the state of knowledge in the early 17th century. The author argues that much of what is accepted as knowledge is in fact flawed and unreliable, and he proposes a new method for acquiring knowledge, based on careful observation and experimentation. The author also discusses the broader historical and cultural context of knowledge, and the role that it plays in shaping our understanding of the world around us. The ideas presented in this book have been influential in the development of modern science, and they continue to be debated by philosophers today. The text is an essential read for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of science, and it offers valuable insights into the nature of knowledge and the human quest for understanding.
