Biographies

This is small copy of the introduction of the book: Francis Bacon (1561-1626) was an English philosopher, statesman, scientist, jurist, and author. He is considered to be one of the most influential figures in the Scientific Revolution. Bacon's work helped to lay the foundation for modern science by promoting the use of inductive reasoning and experimental observation.

Bacon was born into a prominent family in London. His father, Sir Nicholas Bacon, was the Lord Keeper of the Great Seal under Queen Elizabeth I. Bacon's mother, Anne Cooke Bacon, was a learned woman who taught him Latin and Greek at a young age.

Bacon received a classical education at Trinity College, Cambridge. After graduating from Cambridge, he studied law at Gray's Inn. Bacon was admitted to the bar in 1582 and quickly rose through the ranks of the legal profession.

In 1584, Bacon was elected to Parliament. He served in Parliament for over 20 years and was a vocal advocate for reform. Bacon also served in a number of government positions, including Solicitor General, Attorney General, and Lord Chancellor.
