   Extractions: English philosopher and statesman. Francis Bacon started out his professional life as a lawyer, and his philosophy of law was one of absolute duty to the Sovereign, but he is most well known as an advocate and defender of the scientific revolution. His philosophical works lay out a complex methodology for scientific inquiry which is often called the Baconian method. He studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, 1573-75, and in 1576 was admitted to Gray's Inn. He entered parliament in 1584, became one of the leading lawyers of England, and rose through various posts in the public service until he reached the Lord Chancellorship in 1618. The same year he was raised to the peerage as Baron Verulam, and three years later was made Viscount St. Albans. In 1621 he was charged with accepting bribes, and was tried and found guilty; his offices were taken from him, he was sentenced to a fine of £40,000, to imprisonment during the king's pleasure, and was disabled from sitting in parliament and coming within twelve miles of the court. Feeling his disgrace keenly, he went into retirement and devoted the remainder of his life to study and literary work. The parliamentary sentence, however, was not imposed, for the king (James I) practically remitted his fine and in 1622 he was allowed to come to London.

   Extractions: Francis Bacon (1561-1626) At the same time that he was founding and promoting this new project for the advancement of learning, Bacon was also moving up the ladder of state service. His career aspirations had been largely disappointed under Elizabeth I, but with the ascension of James his political fortunes rose. Knighted in 1603, he was then steadily promoted to a series of offices, including Solicitor General (1607), Attorney General (1613), and eventually Lord Chancellor (1618). While serving as Chancellor, he was indicted on charges of bribery and forced to leave public office. He then retired to his estate where he devoted himself full time to his continuing literary, scientific, and philosophic work. He died in 1626, leaving behind a cultural legacy that, for better or worse, includes most of the foundation for the triumph of technology and for the modern world as we currently know it. Life and Political Career Sir Francis Bacon (later Lord Verulam, the Viscount St. Albans, and Lord Chancellor of England) was born in London in 1561 to a prominent and well-connected family. His parents were Sir Nicholas Bacon, the Lord Keeper of the Seal, and Lady Anne Cooke, daughter of Sir Anthony Cooke, a knight and one-time tutor to the royal family. Lady Anne was a learned woman in her own right, having acquired Greek and Latin as well as Italian and French. She was a sister-in-law both to Sir Thomas Hoby, the esteemed English translator of Castiglione, and to Sir William Cecil (later Lord Burghley), Lord Treasurer, chief counselor to Elizabeth I, and from 1572-1598 the most powerful man in England.

6. Francis Bacon (1561-1626).
   In many external respects, the life of Francis Bacon (15611626) wassimilar to that of Sir Thomas More 1478-1535, a century before.  
   http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Biographies/Philosophy/Bacon.htm
   
   Extractions: Introduction:- Bacon's real claim to fame is: not that he, as the lord chancellor, in 1621, was removed from office for accepting a litigant's bribe; nor, that he was the real writer of the Shakespearean plays (one of the controversies in English literature, the "Baconian controversy") ; but rather Francis Bacon is known as a philosopher, one of the first order. Bacon delineated the principles of the inductive method, which constituted a breakthrough in the approach to science, even though philosophers and scientists of the day, - and seemingly today, yet - repudiated both his theories and methodology, alike. Bacon argued that the only knowledge of importance to man was empirically rooted in the natural world; and that a clear system of scientific inquiry would assure man's mastery over the world. He was the originator of the expression, "Knowledge is power." He was quite taken up by the "materialist" theories and the resultant discoveries of both Copernicus and Galileo . Bacon, along with Galileo are known in the literature as "the great anti-Aristotelians who created the 'modern scientific' view of Nature."

    Extractions: BACON chancelier Francis (1561-1626) La philosophie de Bacon représente une des grandes ruptures avec la scolastique. Après Thomas More et Montaigne, qu’il admire, avant Descartes qui le lira et reprendra plusieurs de ses idées, Bacon cherche à dégager la connaissance humaine de l’autorité accordée à Aristote par les universités : " Le savoir dérivé d’Aristote, s’il est soustrait au libre examen, ne montera pas plus haut que le savoir qu’Aristote avait. " Il reproche aux hommes de l’École de s’être enfermés à la fois dans des cellules de monastères et dans l’étude d’un tout petit nombre d’auteurs, en tout état de cause, dans un savoir livresque, au lieu d’explorer et étudier la nature. Bacon a combiné une carrière politique et une vie de philosophe : membre du Parlement à partir de 1584, il publie en 1597 un premier petit volume contenant notamment des " Essais moraux et politiques ". Après la mort de la reine (1603), se croyant écarté des charges publiques, il entreprend de rédiger , mais le nouveau roi, Jacques I

    Extractions: Francis Bacon (1561-1626) es una de las personalidades más sobresalientes en la historia de la ciencia del mundo occidental. Mis primeros contactos con Bacon fueron todos a través de segundas o hasta de terceras fuentes. Cuando por fin me decidí a leerlo directamente, el resultado fue catastrófico: no entendí casi nada. Creo que la explicación de ese juvenil fracaso es doble y me satisface reconocer que cuando ocurrió tuve conciencia (aunque no muy clara) de sus causas: en primer lugar, los textos de Bacon me presentaron dos grandes obstáculos técnicos, que fueron mi escaso conocimiento del inglés del siglo XVII y de los problemas filosóficos de su tiempo y, en segundo lugar, mi inclinación personal de esa época por el positivismo lógico, tristemente desfasada en el tiempo (unos 30 años) pero no por eso menos sincera y determinante, que me hizo menos fácil la comprensión del mensaje de Bacon. La carrera de Bacon fue mucho más la de un político y hombre de letras que la de un científico. Desde que ingresó al Trinity College, en Cambridge, a los 13 años de edad, desarrolló una antipatía contra Aristóteles que ya no lo abandonó nunca; posteriormente estudió leyes y a los 25 años de edad ingresó a la barra de abogados. Durante el reinado de Isabel I, Bacon intentó ingresar al gobierno pero a pesar de que su tío era uno de los ministros más importantes, no consiguió nada hasta que Jacobo I llegó al trono. A partir de ese momento la carrera política de Bacon cambió por completo: fue hecho caballero en 1603, abogado general en 1613, consejero privado en 1616, señor cuidador
