About “Essays”

Francis Bacon's Essays, first published in 1625, sum up a lifetime of observations on human activity, addressing gaps in the study of mankind such as the influences of birth, temperament, environment, social exchange, leisure, business, and politics. His approach varies from essay to essay, mixing systematic analysis with brilliant insights in styles ranging from detached to passionately engaged.
