Description

1900 The Essays of Francis Bacon, Fine Condition

Essays and Religious Meditations.

Places of Persuasion and Dissuasion.

Seen and Allowed (1597) was the first published book by the philosopher, statesman and jurist Francis Bacon.

The Essays are written in a wide range of styles, from the plain and unadorned to the epigrammatic.

They cover topics drawn from both public and private life, and in each case the essays cover their topics systematically from several different angles, weighing one argument against another.

While the original edition included 10 essays, a much-enlarged second edition appeared in 1612 with 38. Another, under the title Essays or Counsels, Civil and Moral, was published in 1625 with 58 essays. Translations into French and Italian appeared during Bacons lifetime.
