Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Francis, Lord Bacon: Baron of Verulam, Viscount St. Albans, and Lord High Chancellor of England The following Memoir has been written amidst conflicting feelings of the most painful order. The author has, all his life, entertained towards Lord Bacon´s intellectual character, a veneration even above that which he has felt for Plato´s or Aristotle´s; because he has thought, and still thinks, that the English philosopher far surpassed both of them in the power of "anticipating" truth, albeit he was, by his own avowal, the humble interpreter of nature. It will, therefore, the author trusts, be believed that, on undertaking to write the life, he was anxious to adduce every possible vindication of the conduct, of such a man.
