Excerpt from Bacon's Essays: Edited With Introduction and Notes
There are certain periods in the world's history which have a special attraction for those who are watching with interest the intellectual and moral development of India. Such a period is the age of Socrates and the Sophists in Greece. Then, as now in India, the belief in an old mythology was being shattered; tradition, authority, and custom, were no longer accepted as adequate sanctions for moral rules and political institutions. In a word, a spirit of rational inquiry and criticism was supervening upon an age of childlike faith. Such a period again is the age of the Reformation and the Revival of Learning. Here, too, we have a revolt of reason against authority. The dangers of such a movement were greater in Greece than in modern Europe. There was no political stability in any Grecian city, and therefore no natural resistance to revolutionary doctrines. There was no organized or powerful system of scientific or moral beliefs to check the free play of crude and wanton speculation. In this respect there is a close analogy between Greece and India. Both countries suffered in the same ways and from the same causes.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exploration of the nature of truth, religion, and societal unity, framed within the broader historical context of the sixteenth century. The author, writing for Indian students, delves into the tumultuous era of the Reformation and the Renaissance, where reason and critical inquiry were challenging established authorities and beliefs. The book offers a fascinating analysis of the tensions between faith and reason, tradition and innovation. It examines the dangers of unchecked skepticism and the importance of finding a balanced approach to religious unity. The author draws parallels between the intellectual upheaval of ancient Greece and the changing landscape of India in the late nineteenth century. Through insightful essays on topics like truth, death, and the nature of God, the book provides a nuanced perspective on the pursuit of knowledge and the complexities of human existence. The author's deep understanding of history, philosophy, and the political realities of his time makes this book a valuable resource for understanding the dynamics of societal change and the timeless pursuit of truth.
