The new organon - Francis Bacon

49

Product description

The book "The New Organon" is the second part of the project "The Great Revival" that "Francis Bacon" planned to produce in six parts, but he died before completing it, and only this part was authored. He had previously written the book "The Advancement of Learning" which he made the first part of "The Great Revival". His goal through this project was to clarify the relationship between humans and nature and how they control it through science. The word "Organon" means the tool or the machine itself, as a logic for scientific thinking, and Bacon used this term to oppose the Aristotelian method, which was known by the same name "Organon". The book contains two sections: the first is the negative section "Fragments on the Interpretation of Nature and in the Kingdom of Man", and the second is the positive "Fragments on the Interpretation of Nature or in the Kingdom of Man". Among its most famous parts are "The Four Illusions": the illusions of the tribe, the illusions of the cave, the illusions of the market, and the illusions of the theater.
