[RALEIGH, Walter, Sir] / [BACON, Francis]Biblio.com

A declaration of the demeanor and carriage of Sir Walter Raleigh knight as well his voyage as in and sithence his Returne; and of the true motives and inducements which occasioned His Maiestie to proceed in doing iustice upon him as hath bene done

16183463London: Bonham Norton and John Bill 1618. Rare first edition first issue of the defense of James Is execution of Sir Walter Raleigh written by Francis Bacon and with according to Bacon very material additions by the king himself. The work describes the circumstances surrounding Raleighs final voyage to America in 1618 with the purpose of locating a fabled gold mine and includes the text of Raleighs commission. In the event his expedition ended up seizing the island of St. Thomas and killing its Spanish governor an ostensible act of war against Englands ally. Back in England Raleigh who had already been sentenced to death in 1603 on another conviction was tried by a commission headed by Bacon and executed in October 1618. The English public was appalled: To sacrifice to a concealed enemy of England the life of the only man in the nation who had a high reputation for valor and military experience was regarded as meanness and indiscretion and the intimate connections which the king was now entering into with Spain being universally distasteful rendered this proof of his complaisance still more invidious and unpopular David Hume History of England. The present volume is the governments hasty attempt to justify the execution. Bacon as a member of the council that had sentenced Raleigh appears to have been the main author. In a letter to a friend he mentioned the work and the kings input: We have put the Declaration touching Raleigh to press with his Majestys additions which were very material and fit to proceed from his Majesty cf. Pforzheimer 819. The work is known in at least two issues a first issue of 63 pages and a second of 68. STC and Pforzheimer originally took the present to be the second issue but the STC has since revised its opinion based on the research by Starkey published in his Library article of 1948.

Neuf livres de la dignité et de l'accroissement des sciences

163273The rare first French edition of De Dignitate et augmentis scientarum " Francis Bacon's first important published text" J. P. Cavaillé.Gibson 137.The book was published in English in 1605 in only two books. The Magna Instituatio was published in 1620. At the end of his life 1623 Bacon gave a new edition in nine books and in Latin. A translation was given by André Maugars in Paris in 1624 under the title Le Progrez et avancement aux sciences divines & humaines. This one different is a new book much more complete. Bacon's work of great significance in the development of modern Western thought called "intrinsically important" by Pforzheimer.Bacon's masterpiece that will deeply influence the thinking of Descartes Locke Leibniz Huygens and Voltaire. In this work Bacon reveals his new scientific method. Francis Bacon 1551-1626 " was the prophet of the truths that Newton later came to reveal to men" Horace Walpole. " This work is the most complete of Bacon's writings: it is also one of those in which the author's qualities shine most brightly and where the truly encyclopedic qualities of his vast intelligence are developed at their ease. Bacon in this treatise begins by defending letters and the arts against the contempt of their detractors and celebrates in magnificent terms their greatness and usefulness. He then examines what has been done up to his century for their progress and what remains to be done… it ends with a treatise on the sources of law which is a masterpiece of its kind and places Bacon next to Montesquieu… One of the most beautiful monuments raised to the glory of the human spirit" Francis Riaux. "It is not to possible to think that Descartes did not know of this revolution in English philosophy and it is impossible to deny the reality of the influence of Bacon's writings on Descartes" Notice sur Descartes Œuvres de Descartes1864." His proposal was: "A total reconstruction of sciences arts and all human knowledge… to extend the power and dominion of the human race… over the universe". His notions for a planned development of science and social organization based on scientifically ascertained facts are still relevant to what has become one of the crucial problems of the twentieth century "PMM." In terms of conscious power and statesmanlike eloquence he expressed ideas far in advance of his time " W. C. Dampier.A beautiful copy preserved in its contemporary red morocco.Provenance : Jacques Lacour Gayet. Jacques Dugast hardcover

Collection Of Some Principal Rules and Maximes of the Common Lawes of England Elements of the Common Lawes

16391277191639. BACON Francis.

Elements of the Common Lawes of England. BOUND WITH: The Use of the Law. London: Assignes of John More 1639. Small quarto modern full brown calf; pp. 18 94; 8 72. $1800.Third edition of ""one of the earliest if not the first published collection of maxims of the English Law"" Rees I: 20.As Britain's Lord Chancellor Francis Bacon excelled as ""one of the Makers of English Law. In all the spheres that a lawyer can occupy he was preeminent"" Reams 105. Yet the displeasure with which James I viewed his reforms prevented any of Bacon's legal works from being published during his lifetime. Central to this conflict was Bacon's belief ""in a large modern centralized nation-state and in a powerful dominant monarchy. Bacon was against medieval ideas of feudalism just as much as he was against medieval notions in metaphysics Bacon rejected Coke's theory of the supremacy of the common law preferring to ascribe supremacy to natural law or to what he went so far as to call reason What was needed was the vision of the statesman and this Bacon himself volunteered to contribute. The statesman was ready to agree that the judges should be honored as lions but the lions should be 'under the throne.' It was this opinion that recommended him to James I yet Bacon did not succeed in winning James' sympathy even when he was closest to him"" Encyclopedia of Philosophy I: 236. Thus the Elements part of Bacon's noble plan to systematize and reform English law was published posthumously.Among America's Founding Fathers Jefferson held Bacon in especially high esteem. He considered Bacon Locke and Newton to be ""the three greatest men that have ever lived without any exception"" February 15 1789 letter to John Trumbull. While only 25 of the hundreds of maxims collected by Bacon were ever published Elements stands acclaimed as ""one of the earliest if the not the first published collection of Maxims of the English Law in the science of the grounds and mysteries of the law he was exceeded by none"" Marvin 83-84. Bound without general title page Elements of the Common Lawes of England Branched into a Double Tract as sometimes found; with the title page of the first part serving as the volume's title page.
