About Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon, 1st Viscount St. Alban KC (22 January 1561 – 9 April 1626) was an English philosopher, statesman and essayist. His works argued for the possibility of scientific knowledge based only upon inductive reasoning and careful observation of events in nature. Most importantly, he argued this could be achieved by use of a sceptical and methodical approach whereby scientists aim to avoid misleading themselves. His general idea of the importance and possibility of a skeptical methodology makes Bacon the father of the scientific method. This marked a new turn in the rhetorical and theoretical framework for science, the practical details of which are still central in debates about science and methodology today.

Additional quotes by Francis Bacon

«El entendimiento humano no es una luz pura, exenta de sofisticación. Influencias procedentes de la voluntad y la concupiscencia lo enturbian. De este modo se hace de las ciencias lo que se quiere. Lo que se desea creer, esto lo creemos fácilmente.

»Y, así desechamos: lo difícil, porque al investigarlo perdemos la paciencia; lo humilde y sobrio, porque no se aviene con nuestras esperanzas de grandeza; las ocultas fuerzas que mueven la naturaleza, porque somos supersticiosos; la luz de la experiencia, porque somos arrogantes y orgullosos y no queremos dar la impresión de que nuestro espíritu se ocupe en cosas viles y mutables; las opiniones nuevas y extraordinarias, porque somos afectos a las que están de moda.

»En resumen: nuestras propensiones afectivas impregnan y envenenan al entendimiento de incontables modos y, a menudo, de una manera imperceptible»

There is a great difference between the Idols of the human mind and the Ideas of the divine. That is to say, between certain empty dogmas, and the true signatures and marks set upon the works of creation as they are found in nature.
