Excerpt from Methodist Quarterly Review, 1858, Vol. 40
What we have indicated as alone expedient to be introduced into an abridged version of the Opus Majus, would furnish the contents for a volume suitable to be included in Bohn's series, and would form an attractive and instructive addition to his collection. If such an addition were published by him, or by any other member of the worshipful fraternity of bibl iopoles, it might compel the editors and indiscriminate eulogists of Lord Bacon to take cognizance of his obligations to earlier philosophers, and especially to his namesake, whom he so rarely and grudgingly mentions; or, if this duty were still neglected, as has hitherto been usual, it would invite and enable others to investigate the relations and agreements of these homolo gone and homonymous philosophers, and discover the extent to which the younger reformer was indebted to his precursor, and the degree of criminality attending the concealment of this indebtedness. To expedite such a consummation, we propose to give here some of the principal results derived from our own examination.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the intersection of the beliefs and practices of two men who shared the same last name but lived centuries apart. The author argues that English philosopher and scientist Francis Bacon borrowed or imitated both the subject matter and the titles of many of his works from the 13th-century philosopher and scientist, Roger Bacon. Despite their shared surname, the two thinkers are separated by considerable time, and their works explore different ideas. While Roger Bacon attempted to reform philosophy by synthesizing existing knowledge, Francis Bacon intended to create a new methodology for scientific discovery. The author provides ample evidence that Francis Bacon borrowed or imitated Roger Bacon's terminology and ideas, but he does not delve into Francis Bacon's motivations for doing so. Through comparing the works of these thinkers, this book sheds light on the development of philosophy and science during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
