Más información sobre el libro

Set against the backdrop of Bacon's philosophical journey, this unfinished work envisions an ideal society on a mythical island, drawing inspiration from Plato's Atlantis. Written during his later years, it reflects his thoughts on nature and humanity. The narrative is influenced by the historical context of exploration and the search for utopian ideals, positioning the island in a location reminiscent of Australia. Initially published in Latin, it serves as a testament to Bacon's enduring legacy and his vision of a perfect society, despite its incomplete state.
