�ber diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This seminal philosophical treatise, originally penned in 1605 and considered the first major philosophical work written in English, also offers the first description of science as a tool to improve the human condition. This breakthrough work of the English Renaissance hailed new times and new possibilities for the human species. Bacon catalogues the current state of learning, the obstacles to its progress, and his own plans for its revitalisation. This facsimile makes available a work that has significantly defined the modern era. The Advancement of Learning was the personal property of Charles I and contains the King's own additions to many of bacon's bried pithy sayings. The initialled'Dum spiro spero' in this book is considered to be a forgery
