RE: Francis Bacon @frankbacon

in #art8 years ago

nice pecture me friend i like this man!! we studied the history of his philosophy at school!! bacon was not only the most prominent politician of his time but also the most prominent thinker and writer, writing in philosophy, literature and science. He had in his mind ideas aimed at the fundamental reform and development of human knowledge,

Sort:  

He was one of the top thinkers and doers of his day....It is interesting how he came to court at such a young tender age. He had no money and was still able to study and get his law degree. I wonder who mentored and supported his entry into the elites society besides his fathers position.

bacon was committed to the anglican church, as a supporter of the King and his divine right against parliament, and fought his closest friends, opponents and benefactors during his tenure as a lawyer and deputy general,his unforeseen poverty, and his preoccupation with the job, without being heard by anyone,when James I ascended to the throne of England, Bacon sent him a letter presenting himself to the king as fit for office. he had everything from the royal court @reddust
