المعرفة عند فرنسيس بيكون : دراسة من منظور مختلف

Abstract EN

Our research is knowledge according to Francis, which will be a study from a different perspective as we chose this topic because we wanted to decipher the problematic that some people may fall into by asking the following question: why did Bacon not directly care about (the truth) despite being an empirical-sensual philosopher? what we found with him is completely different from the sensual experimental philosophers who came after him, headed by John Locke, as we found that Locke was closer to the mental direction and directed in knowledge towards ( the truth ) and this is his goal, but Bacon was only concerned with Controlling nature and this is why it came His famous phrase (knowledge is power) stemming from his philosophy in which he demonstrated his rebellion against Aristotelian thought and philosophy Especially his inductive method in scientific research, claiming that (Argonne Aristotle) has become an old methodological tool that has become obsolete and is no longer able to enable man to (control nature), in addition to keeping Science stagnant and relying on theoretical thought more than on realistic observation, Therefore, he believes that philosophy and natural science should be studied inductive, but according to a different view, considering that knowledge by its nature is, cumulative, and this path is sufficient to achieve what rigid theoretical philosophies fail to do.

Therefore, he relied on a precise scientific strategy aimed at granting man sufficiency in knowledge and pushing him to Search for new knowledge, and this does not come except through changing the old method with new one so that it enables man to control nature and this is his goal, and from here he saw that man should discover the natural system for things to expand his knowledge and consolidate his pour at work, Considering that nature is man, but rather his strength.
