Description

New Atlantis and The Great Instauration by Francis Bacon is a richly annotated edition of two foundational works that explore the intersection of philosophy, politics, and human progress. This second edition includes additional writings by Bacon, such as "The Idols of the Mind," "Of Unity in Religion," and "Of the True Greatness of Kingdoms and Estates," providing a comprehensive understanding of his thought. The book features an updated design, making it easier to navigate and study, with introductions, annotations, and summaries that reveal the significance of Bacon's work to both his contemporaries and modern readers. A helpful appendix includes principal dates in Bacon's life, a selected bibliography, and synopses and questions to accompany each work. This edition is ideal for students and scholars seeking to engage with Bacon's influential ideas on politics, philosophy, and human progress.
