Francis Bacon (The ^AOxford Authors) by Bacon, Francis. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780192820259.
This is the first extensive one-volume selection of Bacons English writings in over 90 years. The latest addition to The Oxford Authors series, it includes all the major literary writings on which his reputation rests--the Advancement of Learning, the Essays (in their first and last versions), and the New Atlantis. It also includes sixteen other works not reprinted for over a century, which show Bacons remarkable all-round abilities in politics, law, theology, and poetry. The selections are annotated in more detail than in any other edition, with particular emphasis on explaining Bacons language.
