Story79
Sir Francis Bacon's The New Atlantis is a utopian novel about a mythical land called Bensalem, where the inhabitants live happily with the sciences. In The New Atlantis, Bacon focuses on the duty of the state toward science, and his projections for state-sponsored research anticipate many advances in medicine and surgery, meteorology, and machinery. Although The New Atlantis is only a part of his plan for an ideal commonwealth, this work does represent Bacon's ideological beliefs.

Story3
Sir Francis Bacon, sometimes known as the father of empiricism, was one of the major political figures of his day, his career culminating as Lord Chancellor under King James I in 1617. Bacon wrote widely, but it is the Essays (published in its third edition in 1625, the year before his death) for which he is best known. Deftly written and often displaying a cutting wit, they cover a wide range of subjects including death, love, marriage, ambition and atheism.

Bacon published this interesting little work in 1609. It contains thirty-one fables abounding with a union of deep thought and poetic beauty. In most fables he explains the common but erroneous supposition that knowledge and the conformity of the will, knowing and acting, are convertible terms.

The New Organon is the second part of Bacon's philosophical work, The Great Instauration on the renewal of the sciences, which was published in 1620. The title refers to Aristotle's work Organon - meaning “trumpeter” - a treatise on logic and syllogism. Bacon’s work offers a new method of investigating nature, named “the Interpretation of Nature”.

Story0
What is Political Science? Within human society, it is customary to distinguish between the following spheres: economic, political, social, and spiritual. The political sphere is important in that it involves and determines the interactions of different political powers. This understanding lies at the foundation of any political analysis of public life. Politics as a specific sector within human society is as old as it is modern. Many famous statesmen and scientists are credited as the authors of laws and political systems.

Story2
Francis Bacon (1561-1626), 1st Viscount St Albans, Attorney General and then Lord Chancellor of England, was an immensely learned, clever and ambitious man, with considerable political influence. However, he was also a philosopher with a wide interest in science, medicine and the classification of knowledge. Throughout his life he wrote a series of essays - following the manner set particularly by Montaigne, though extending back to Aristotle and others - the first 10 of which appeared in 1597.

The crew of a European ship discovers the utopian island of Bensalem, having gotten lost in the Pacific Ocean somewhere near Peru. The crew spend time learning about the ways of the people of Bensalem, a very chaste group of Christians. The most important part of the island is their university, a state-sponsored scientific institution known as Salomon's House. The narrator is chosen from amongst the crew to get a one-on-one explanation of the way their society works, and he learns about the various buildings and jobs that exist on Bensalem.

Story0
The Novum Organum, penned by Francis Bacon in 1620, represents a groundbreaking philosophical work that translates to new instrument. This title nods to Aristotles Organon, his foundational text on logic and syllogism. In Novum Organum, Bacon introduces a revolutionary system of logic, asserting its superiority over traditional syllogistic methods. He posits that uncovering the essence of a thing is a straightforward process of reduction and inductive reasoning. This work played a pivotal role in shaping the scientific method as we know it today. (Summary by Wikipedia)

Many might view this exploration of ancient fables as mere entertainment, a light-hearted diversion for both the author and the audience. However, the intention behind delving into these tales runs much deeper. While its true that fables are malleable and can be interpreted in countless ways, this series aims to honor the wisdom embedded within these stories without distorting their original meanings. Throughout history, individuals have often twisted these narratives to lend credibility to their own beliefs, a practice that is neither new nor uncommon. From ancient philosophers like ...

La nueva Atlántida de Francis Bacon, es una novela utópica, un proyecto inacabado de la razón social, política y científica que nos muestra la aventura de una tripulación, quienes después de naufragar, ya con las esperanzas rotas y cansados de implorar a Dios, llegan a la isla de Bensalem, ejemplo de comunidad, donde de la mano de la ciencia, reina la armonía y la felicidad. Bacon, bajo la apariencia de una historia real, nos muestra una sociedad ficticia donde La Casa de Salomón, sustituto imaginario de la comunidad científica, es, pues, la protagonista de esta obra.
