This volume presents a Soviet scholarly edition of key works by Francis Bacon (1561–1626), the English philosopher, statesman, and pioneer of the scientific method. Published in 1954 as part of the prestigious "Literary Monuments" series by the USSR Academy of Sciences, it includes his utopian treatise The New Atlantis alongside a selection of his influential Essays. The edition reflects the Soviet academic interest in the Western philosophical canon, particularly in Bacon's materialist and empiricist thought, which was seen as a forerunner to modern scientific reasoning. As a critical publication from the post-Stalinist period, it served to make Bacon's ideas accessible to Russian readers within the framework of Marxist-Leninist historiography of philosophy.
