| roger bacon: Roger Bacon and the Sciences Hackett, 2021-10-25 This volume deals with the philosophy and thought of Roger Bacon. It is an effort to bring Roger Bacon studies up to date. Attention is given to a wide range of topics: Bacon's life and works, Bacon's contribution to the trivium (language studies) and the quadrivium (scientific-mathematical studies), his notion of a science, his moral philosophy, Bacon's contribution to medicine, alchemy, astrology, Bacon's positions in physics and metaphysics, an up dated bibliography of Bacon studies and a review of the state of Bacon Manuscripts. The volume situates Roger Bacon in the context of 13th century philosophy and thought, as well as demonstrating his importance for later thinkers. It is expected that it will be a major new contribution to Medieval and Renaissance Studies. |
| roger bacon: Roger Bacon Brian Clegg, 2013-08-29 Back in thirteenth-century Europe, in the early years of the great universities, learning was spiced with the danger of mob violence and a terrifyingly repressive religious censorship. Roger Bacon, a humble and devout English friar, seems an unlikely figure to challenge the orthodoxy of his day - yet he risked his life to establish the basis for true knowledge. Born c.1220, Bacon was passionately interested in the natural world and how things worked. Such dangerous topics were vetoed by his Order, and it was only when a new Pope proved sympathetic that he began compiling his encyclopaedia on everything from optics to alchemy - the synopsis took a year and ran to 800,000 words and he was never to complete the work itself. Sadly, the enlightened Pope died, and Bacon was tried as a magician and incarcerated for ten years. Legend transformed Bacon into a sorcerer, 'Doctor Mirabilis', yet he taught that all magic was based on fraud, and his books were the first flowering of the scientific thinking that would transform our world. He advanced the understanding of optics, made geographical breakthroughs later used by Columbus, predicted everything from horseless carriages to the telescope, and stressed the importance of mathematics to science, a significance ignored for 400 years. His biggest contribution was to insist that a study of the natural world by observation and exact measurement was the surest foundation for truth. Clegg uncovers the realities of life in a medieval university and friary, setting out the shadowy facts of Bacon's life alongside his writings. The result is both a fascinating biography and a picture of the age. |

| roger bacon: Roger Bacon's Philosophy of Nature Roger Bacon, David C. Lindberg, 1983 Bacon believed that an investigation of the behavior of light would lead to an understanding of nature's inner workings. The larger of the two treatises edited and translated in this book represents Bacon's best and fullest attempt to explore all of the implciations of this doctrine. The shorter work is an attempt to explore in detail the modes of propagation of light, a subject related to the larger issues treated in De multiplicatione specierum. |

| roger bacon: The Philosophy and Science of Roger Bacon Nicola Polloni, Yael Kedar, 2021-04-20 The Philosophy and Science of Roger Bacon offers new insights and research perspectives on one of the most intriguing characters of the Middle Ages, Roger Bacon. At the intersections between science and philosophy, the volume analyses central aspects of Bacon’s reflections on how nature and society can be perfected. The volume dives into the intertwining of Bacon’s philosophical stances on nature, substantial change, and hylomorphism with his scientific discussion of music, alchemy, and medicine. The Philosophy and Science of Roger Bacon also investigates Bacon’s projects of education reform and his epistemological and theological ground maintaining that humans and God are bound by wisdom, and therefore science. Finally, the volume examines how Bacon’s doctrines are related to a wider historical context, particularly in consideration of Peter John Olivi, John Pecham, Peter of Ireland, and Robert Grosseteste. The Philosophy and Science of Roger Bacon is a crucial tool for scholars and students working in the history of philosophy and science and also for a broader audience interested in Roger Bacon and his long-lasting contribution to the history of ideas. |

| roger bacon: The Mirror of Alchimy Roger Bacon, 2022-09-16 In The Mirror of Alchimy, Roger Bacon intricately explores the interconnected realms of science and mysticism, presenting alchemy as a precursor to modern scientific inquiry. Written in the late medieval period, Bacon's work is characterized by a rigorous yet lyrical prose style that fuses philosophical reflection with practical experimentation. He utilizes a dialectical approach to deconstruct alchemical processes, revealing not only the techniques of transformation but also the underlying metaphysical principles. This seminal treatise serves as both a comprehensive guide to the alchemist's art and a profound meditation on the nature of knowledge and reality, firmly situating it within the burgeoning intellectual landscape of the 13th century, which laid the groundwork for the Renaissance and the Scientific Revolution. Roger Bacon, a Franciscan friar and philosopher, was a pioneer in advocating for empirical methods of inquiry, influenced by the works of Aristotle and his own observations. His experiences in academia and his encounters with various scientific disciplines motivated him to seek a deeper understanding of nature through alchemical practices. Bacon's unique perspectives on the synthesis of philosophy and science reflect his belief in the transformative potential of knowledge, positioning him as an early advocate for the experimental approach that would characterize later scientific thought. The Mirror of Alchimy is a compelling read for scholars, philosophers, and curious minds alike. Its rich historical context and Bacon's visionary synthesis of science and mysticism provide profound insights into the origins of modern thought. For anyone interested in the interrelation of alchemical traditions and their influence on contemporary science, this work is an essential addition to the canon, inviting readers to contemplate the transformative power of knowledge. |

| roger bacon: Roger Bacon and the Defence of Christendom Amanda Power, 2012-10-04 The English Franciscan Roger Bacon (c.1214–92) holds a controversial but important position in the development of modern science. He has been portrayed as an isolated figure, at odds with his influential order and ultimately condemned by it. This major study, the first in English for nearly sixty years, offers a provocative new interpretation of both Bacon and his environment. Amanda Power argues that his famous writings for the papal curia were the product of his critical engagement with the objectives of the Franciscan order and the reform agenda of the thirteenth-century church. Fearing that the apocalypse was at hand and Christians unprepared, Bacon explored radical methods for defending, renewing and promulgating the faith within Christendom and beyond. Read in this light, his work indicates the breadth of imagination possible in a time of expanding geographical and intellectual horizons. |

| roger bacon: On Signs Roger Bacon, 2013 Roger Bacon's 'Opus maius' represents an attempt to create a whole new vision of what Christian education should be, one centered on service to the Church. In the second chapter of Part 3 of this work he presents a semiotics with several original features as a partial hermeneutic for studying the scriptures and sacraments. It distinguishes itself in offering a non-Augustinian definition of signs and maps out their logical and natural functions. Bacon spells out numerous ways in which words equivocate, distinguishes between analogy and equivocation, classifies five degrees of equivocation, and comes up with a new notion of analogical signification. Words, he claims, originally were imposed only for existing things and, in contrast with the majority opinion, name directly the things for which they are imposed and not the latter's concepts. When a name signifies a thing, he says, it also co-signifies anything logically or naturally connected with that thing - its concept, its genus, the thing's matter and form, its Creator, and so on. |

| roger bacon: The First Scientist Brian Clegg, 2004-06-20 Legend may have transformed the thirteenth-century English friar Roger Bacon into the Faust-like sorcerer Doctor Mirabilis, but he stands today in high regard as Europe's first great pioneer in the field of science. Bypassing the vicissitudes of Bacon's reputation, this definitive new biography by science writer Brian Clegg places the medieval monastic firmly in the turbulent and contentious intellectual atmosphere of his day. It also finds in Bacon's attempt to reconcile, or at least acknowledge, the variant methods and means of science and theology a quest that places him well ahead of his intellectual times. For Bacon brought to his inquiry into the nature of things his gifts not only as a lucid observer of natural phenomena, rigorous experimenter, empirical thinker, and gifted mathematician but as a theologian and philosopher as well. In his search for truth he would, like Galileo, suffer imprisonment rather than sacrifice his intellectual integrity. From Bacon's popularity as a teacher at Oxford and Paris, through his innovations in calendar reform, his experiments in optics, his designs for a flying machine, and, most famously, his development of the principle of inductive experimental science, this illuminative volume unfolds the story of a brilliant career. |
