The New Atlantis is a utopian novel written by Francis Bacon in the early 17th century. The book tells the story of a group of sailors who stumble upon an island called Bensalem, which is ruled by a society of wise and enlightened individuals. The island is a place where science, learning, and religion are all valued equally, and where the pursuit of knowledge is seen as the key to happiness and prosperity. The inhabitants of Bensalem have access to advanced technologies and scientific knowledge that are far beyond what is available in the outside world. The book explores themes of science, religion, and the role of government in society, and is considered one of the most important works of early modern utopian literature. Bacon's vision of a perfect society has been influential in shaping the way we think about science and technology, and continues to inspire thinkers and writers to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
