Publisher's Synopsis
The Letter of Roger Bacon Concerning the Marvelous Power of Art and Nature and the Nullity of Magic, written by Roger Bacon, is a philosophical treatise that explores the nature of magic, art, and nature. Bacon was a 13th-century English philosopher and Franciscan friar who was known for his contributions to science and philosophy. In this letter, he argues against the use of magic and instead advocates for the power of art and nature. He argues that magic is a false science that relies on superstition and deception, whereas art and nature are based on rationality and observation. Bacon also discusses the various ways in which art and nature can be used to achieve remarkable results, such as the creation of new inventions and the discovery of new knowledge. The Letter of Roger Bacon Concerning the Marvelous Power of Art and Nature and the Nullity of Magic is a fascinating exploration of the relationship between science, philosophy, and spirituality, and is an important historical document in the development of Western thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
