Beale piracy with "Aturney" on title-page. Title within border of printer's ornaments head- and tailpieces woodcut initials "Of the Colours" section title. 232 pp. Collation: A2-O8 P3 lacking blanks A1 and P4. Small 8vo. There were three editions of Bacon's Essayes dated 1613 with a Jaggard imprint. The first printed by Jaggard after the 1612 Beale edition of the Essayes has the spelling "Atturny" for "Attorney" on the title-page. The other two printings which spell "Attorney" as "Aturney" as here and "Atturney" are in fact counterfeit editions printed by the same John Beale whose 1612 edition stood as the model for Jaggard's 1613 edition. There is some debate about Jaggard's right to print the Essayes as he never registered the work with the Stationers' Company see Pforzheimer 29 for the arguments. The Essayes of statesman and philosopher Francis Bacon 1561-1626 treat moral and political topics in "a terse aphoristic style . which Bacon conceived as a genre setting down discrete observations on life and aspiring to some kind of objective validity" ODNB. "In an age of complicated and superficial verbiage Bacon turns the licence of imaginative and allusive expression into an instrument of accurate and chastened thought" Cambridge History of English and American Literature. The Essayes were originally circulated in manuscript among Bacon's friends - the threat of a pirated edition by Richard Seeger lead to Bacon entrusting the work to Humfrey Hooper for publication in 1597.

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.

The essayes or counsels ciuill and morall of Francis Lo. Verulam Viscount St. Alban

1629913London: Printed by Iohn Hauiland and are sold by R. Allot 1629. This 1629 edition contains all 58 essays. And is the First edition to contain The colors of good and evil. Bound in the original limp vellumlacking ties recently recased and a little rumpled but a very largeclean and unsophisticated copy of an early quarto edition. His long attempt to reform the intellectual habits of the European mind began with the publication of The Advancement of Learning in 1605 which attacked the unprofitable scholasticism that inhibited the growth of knowledge and the mental prejudices that helped to keep men in ignorance. Above all he deplored the poor and confused state of knowledge about the operations of the natural world. Novum Organum begun about 1608 published 1620 called for a systematic study of the natural world and of the causes of things and proposed the inductive method as the most reliable instruments of enquiry. Bacon worked out the principles of the experimental method in this book and developed them in De Augmentis 1623. Sylva Sylvarum a proposal of 1000 experiments to be undertaken was published posthumously in 1627 together with New Atlantis a Utopian fragment written about 1617 that urged the foundation of a college for scientific research. A short book that enjoyed much popularity in his lifetime was De Sapientia Veterum 1609 translated as The Wisdom of the Ancients 1619 which tried to demonstrate that the myths of the Greeks were coded accounts of their knowledge of the physical world.â€ Quoted from The Seventeenth Century by Graham Perry pages 264-265. â€œBaconâ€™s Essays the fruits of his political and social observations were first published in 1597 enlarged in 1612 and again in 1625. This 1629 edition contains all 58 essays. And is the First edition to contain The colors of good and evil and has divisional title page; register is continuous. Some copies may have been issued without this but the present copy has it. â€œOf Baconâ€™s literary as distinct from his philosophical and professional works far the most popular and important are the Essays they are the most original of all Baconâ€™s works those which in detail he seems to have thought out most completely for himself apart from books and collections of commonplaces. The last edition referring to that of 1625 the first to contain all fifty-eight essays teems indeed with quotations and illustrations but they are suggested by his own matter and do not suggest it. Though the Essays have the same title as the larger collection of Montaigne the two works have little in common except that rare power of exciting interest and the unmistakable mark of genius which is impressed on them both.â€ DNB STC 1149; Gibson 15 Pforzheimer 31.
