18033004138London: J. Johnson et al. 1803. Ten volumes large octavo engraved portrait frontispiece and folding table; original diced calf bindings with the gilt arms of Trinity College Dublin to the boards. <p><p>A fine and most attractive set in original calf presented as a prize at Trinity College Dublin in 1806 to Thomas Fowell Buxton the abolitionist and social reformer. Buxton was at Trinity from 1803 to 1807; he evidently cared for the set as he presented it to his eldest son the second Baronet on 12 December 1836.</p> <p>This is an excellent collection of the scientific and philosophical works of one of the most influential thinkers of the seventeenth century including Bacon's "Of the Advancement of Learning" "Sylva Sylvarum or A Natural History in Ten Centuries" Physiological Remains Medical Remains Medical Receipts Works Moral Theological Works Works Political Law Tracts Maxims of the Law Writings Historical Letters Speeches Charges Advices &c; "Instauratio magna" Opuscula philosophica Opera civilia et moralia "De sapientia veterum" Meditationes sacrae and Epistolae. </p> <p>"'I have taken all knowledge to be my province' Bacon declared He held to his course if not 'beyond the utmost bound of human thought' at least to the uttermost edge discernible in his day and that too in every department of intellectual activity. Bacon's day was perhaps the latest moment in history when anything like omniscience was within the limits of human attainment; even in his day Bacon's was perhaps the only mind that could achieve it" Winterich 205-6.</p> </p> .

This is the most important of Bacon's philosophical writing first published in 1605. The first book eloquently discusses the importance of learning with the second being a crucial work on the philosophy of science. It describes the gross inadequacies of the curriculum in English universities and the need for detailed study of material objects to discover ultimately the explanation of every aspect of nature. The Advancement of Learning then provides a survey of learning classifying existing branches of knowledge and pointing to new areas for study.Clark Memorial Library.
